DESCRIPTION
This input opens a file (usually a device file or pipe) and reads mouse protocol data from it.
OPTIONS
- mousetype
-
Indicates what type of mouse is attached. The following types are supported:
- ms
-
Two button Microsoft compatible mice.
- ms3
- mman
-
Serial Intellimouse or compatible. Supports four buttons for mice like the Logitech MouseMan+.
- msc
-
MouseSystems compatible (used in most 3-button mice).
- logi
-
Used in older Logitech serial mice.
- mm
-
MM series mice.
- sun
-
Sun mice. The protocol is the same as 'msc' protocol except it used only 3 bytes per packet.
- mman
-
MouseMan protocol.
- bm
-
Non-PS/2 busmice.
- ps2
-
PS/2 mice (most non-serial mice use this protocol)
- imps2
-
PS/2 IntelliMouse and compatible.
- mmanps2
-
PS/2 Logitech MouseMan+ and compatible.
Most of the strings supported by GPM, SVGAlib and XFree can be specified.
The special value auto tells input-linux-mouse to read ~/.ggi/input/linux-mouse, and if that fails, $sysconfdir/ggi/input/linux-mouse. If none of the two files are found, input-linux-mouse tries to auto-detect the mouse, and as a last resort uses the mouse information specified in /etc/vga/libvga.config.
- file
-
The file to read mouse protocol data from; defaults to /dev/mouse.
- bbaud
-
Baud rate of mouse device
- rrts
-
Turns off RTS if set to 0; turns RTS on if set to a number greater than 0.
- rdtr
-
Turns off DTR if set to 0; turns DTR on if set to a number greater than 0.
