unclutter is a program which runs permanently in the background of an
|
||
|
|
X11 session. It checks on the X11 pointer (cursor) position every
|
||
|
|
few seconds, and when it finds it has not moved (and no buttons are
|
||
|
|
pressed on the mouse, and the cursor is not in the root window) it
|
||
|
|
creates a small sub-window as a child of the window the cursor is in.
|
||
|
|
The new window installs a cursor of size 1x1 but a mask of all 0, ie
|
||
|
|
an invisible cursor. This allows you to see all the text in an xterm
|
||
|
|
or xedit, for example. The human factors crowd would agree it should
|
||
|
|
make things less distracting.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is an "old-school" X11 app, from the days before desktop
|
||
|
|
environments. To run when X starts, add "unclutter &" to your .xinitrc,
|
||
|
|
before the line that execs your window manager.
