[PATCH libinput 1/2] Add a configuration interface for enabling/disabling disable-while-typing

Peter Hutterer peter.hutterer at who-t.net
Sun Jul 12 19:46:26 PDT 2015


DWT can interfere with some applications where keyboard and touchpad use at
the same time is common, e.g. games but also anything that requires a
combination of frequent pointer motion and use of keyboard shortcuts.

Expose a toggle to disable DWT where needed.
