Range: 0.2 - 3.0 seconds. --ssc-time=FLOAT Time to hold the primary mouse button before a simulated secondary click is performed. Range: 0.5 - 3.0 seconds. -m, --dwell-mode=STRING Select a dwell mode. Available options: window - Select the click type from a window or a panel applet. gesture - Perform different clicks by moving in different directions. -c, --show-ctw Show the click-type window. Only useful in combination with --dwell-mode=window. -t, --threshold=INT Ignore small pointer movements. Range: 0 - 30 pixels. -g, --geometry Size and position of the click-type window. Expects a standard X Window System geometry string. ie. WIDTHxHEIGHT+X+Y -s, --shutdown Stop the mousetweaks daemon. --daemonize Start mousetweaks in the background, ie. spawn a child process. --login Start mousetweaks in login mode.
