.SH NAME
.LP
syndaemon \- a program that monitors keyboard activity and disables
the touchpad when the keyboard is being used.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.LP
syndaemon [\fI\-i idle\-time\fP] [\fI\-d\fP] [\fI\-p pid\-file\fP]
[\fI\-t\fP] [\fI\-k\fP] [\fI\-K\fP] [\fI\-R\fP] [\fI\-s\fP]
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.LP
Disabling the touchpad while typing avoids unwanted movements of the
pointer that could lead to giving focus to the wrong window.
.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.LP
.TP
\fB\-i\fR <\fIidle\-time\fP>
How many seconds to wait after the last key press before enabling the
touchpad.
.
(default is 2.0s). 
.LP
.TP
\fB\-d\fP
Start as a daemon, ie in the background.
.LP
.TP
\fB\-p\fR <\fIpid\-file\fP>
Create a pid file with the specified filename.
.
A pid file will only be created if the program is started in daemon
mode.
.LP
.TP
\fB\-t\fP
Only disable tapping and scrolling, not mouse movements, in response
to keyboard activity.
.LP
.TP
\fB\-k\fP
Ignore modifier keys when monitoring keyboard activity.
.LP
.TP
\fB\-K\fP
Like \-k but also ignore Modifier+Key combos.
.LP
.TP
\fB\-R\fP
Use the XRecord extension for detecting keyboard activity instead of polling
the keyboard state.
.LP
.TP
\fB\-s\fP
Use a shared memory area to enable/disable the touchpad instead of device
properties. WARNING: The SHM mechanism is not secure if you are in an untrusted multiuser
environment. All local users can change the parameters at any time. This
option requires the driver Option "SHMConfig" to be enabled.
.SH "ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES"
.LP
.TP
\fBDISPLAY\fP
Specifies the X server to contact.
.SH "CAVEATS"
.LP
It doesn't make much sense to connect to a remote X server, because
the daemon will then monitor the remote server for keyboard activity,
but will disable the touchpad on the local machine.
.SH "AUTHORS"
.LP
Peter Osterlund <petero2@@telia.com>.
.TP
This man page was written by Mattia Dongili <malattia@@debian.org>

\fB\-m\fR <\fIpoll\-interval\fP>
How many milliseconds to wait between two polling intervals. If this value is
too low, it will cause unnecessary wake-ups. If this value is too high,
some key presses (press and release happen between two intervals) may not
be noticed. This switch has no effect when running with
\fB-R\fP.
.
Default is 200ms.
