TPADNAV(1)

NAME
tpadnav - generate back and forward keyboard events from touchpad gestures

SYNOPSIS
tpadnav [-d display] [-i interval] [-v]

DESCRIPTION
tpadnav listens for mouse button 6 and 7 events generated by the OpenBSD wsmouse(4) driver in response to two-finger left and right scrolling and then injects fake ‘XF86XK_Back’ and ‘XF86XK_Forward’ keyboard events with the XTest extension. Button events are throttled to only generate a keyboard event every interval milliseconds.

OPTIONS

-d display
    Use a different X11 display named display.

-i interval
    Allow a keyboard event to be generated every interval milliseconds instead of the default 750.

-v  Be verbose in reporting activity.

CAVEATS
Some applications like Chrome ignore keyboard events generated by the Xtest extension.
