NAME
       libwacom-list-local-devices - utility to list tablet devices


SYNOPSIS
       libwacom-list-local-devices [--format=oneline|datafile] [--database /path/to/datadir]


DESCRIPTION
       libwacom-list-local-devices  is  a debug utility to list connected tablet devices identified by libwacom.
       It is usually used to check whether a libwacom data file is correct, present and/or applies to a specific
       device.


OPTIONS
       --format=oneline|datafile
               Sets  the output format to be used. If oneline, the output format is a one-line format comprising
               the device name and the event nodes.  If datafile, the output  format  matches  the  tablet  data
               files. The default is oneline.

       --database /path/do/datadir
               Sets the data directory path to be used. This is only useful when testing against a modified data
               path. Only libwacom developers need this option.


NOTES
       The Linux kernel provides separate /dev/input/event* nodes for the stylus, the pad and the touch part  of
       the tablet. These devices nodes are listed as part of this tool's output.

       This  tool  is  unable  to  distinguish  between multiple identical devices. Only one such device will be
       listed, with all event nodes from all devices that are of the same type.

                                                                                  libwacom-list-local-devices(1)
