Package: evtest (1:1.34-1)

utility to monitor Linux input device events

evtest monitors a Linux input device, displaying all the events it generates.

It can be used to determine mice button bindings, keymaps for exotic keyboards... It is commonly used to debug issues with input devices in X.Org.

evtest is now in maintenance mode and doesn't support all the features of the latest kernels; evemu-record from the evemu-tools package should be used instead.
