=====================
What is mousetweaks ?
=====================
Mousetweaks is the package provides the accessibility functions of
the mouse in GNOME. It also contains two panel applets that are
related to the mouse accessibility. More particularly:
1. It offers a way to perform the various clicks without using any
hardware button. In this context, the Dwell Click panel applet
can be used to choose what click type to perform.
2. It allows users to perform a secondary click by doing a
click&hold of the primary mouse button.
3. It provides the Pointer Capture panel applet. This applet creates
an area on the panel into which the pointer can be captured until
the user releases it with a predefined button and modifier
combination.

Note for distributions about the 2.91 branch
============================================
The 2.91 branch of mousetweaks is aimed at GNOME 3 that is shipping the new GNOME Shell and that does not anymore use the gnome-panel. Thus, we have changed the default of mousetweaks to not build the applets for the gnome-panel.
However, if your distribution is still shipping the gnome-panel, it is recommanded to enable the building of the applets when packaging mousetweaks for the distribution. There are two new configuration switches for that:
--enable-dwell-click
--enable-pointer-capture
By doing so, people using a desktop with the gnome-panel will be able to install the applets as usual on the panel. Moreover, for people using a desktop without gnome-panel, there should be no other drawback than the little space used by the applets on their harddisk.
Many thanks to all contributors.
Best regards,
The MouseTweaks team
