al@19657 3
al@19657 4 libinput is a library to handle input devices in Wayland compositors and to
al@19657 5 provide a generic X.Org input driver. It provides device detection, device
al@19657 6 handling, input device event processing and abstraction so minimize the amount
al@19657 7 of custom input code compositors need to provide the common set of
al@19657 8 functionality that users expect.

al@19657 11 X.Org libinput driver
al@19657 12 ---------------------
al@19657 13
al@19657 14 The X.Org libinput driver is a thin wrapper around libinput and allows for
al@19657 15 libinput to be used for input devices in X. This driver can be used as as
al@19657 16 drop-in replacement for evdev and synaptics. Simply build and install in your
al@19657 17 $PREFIX, then install the config file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/. Restart X and
al@19657 18 the libinput driver will take over your devices.
