libinput

========

libinput is a library that provides a full input stack for display servers

and other applications that need to handle input devices provided by the

kernel.

libinput provides device detection, event handling and abstraction to

minimize the amount of custom input code the user of libinput needs to

provide the common set of functionality that users expect. Input event

processing includes scaling touch coordinates, generating

relative pointer events from touchpads, pointer acceleration, etc.
