NAME

       geistest - test operation of the GEIS API

SYNOPSIS

       geistest [ -w windowid ] [ -d deviceid ]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  explains  the  geistest  program.  This  program  is a test driver for
       verifying the recognition and propagation of gestures through the GEIS API.

       Hitting any key on the keyboard will exit the program gracefully.

OPTIONS

       -w     Specifies  the  windowId  of  a  specific  window  to  associate   with   gestures.
              Particularly  useful  with  touchscreens.  If this argument is not set, the default
              action is to read gestures on all windows.

              The windowId can be determined using the program xwininfo.

       -d     Specifies the deviceId of a specific input device  to  be  tested  for  multi-touch
              gestural  input.   If  this argument is not set, the default action is to listen to
              multi-touch input on all devices.  This argument may be  used  more  than  once  to
              specify multiple input devices.

              The deviceId can be determined using the program xinput.

ENVIRONMENT

       GEIS_DEBUG
              Enables GEIS library diagnostic messages on stderr.
