Description: Command-line automation tool - daemon
Generic Linux command-line automation tool
.
ydotool works differently from xdotool. xdotool
sends X events directly to X server, while ydotool
uses the uinput framework of Linux kernel to emulate
an input device.
.
When ydotool runs and creates an virtual input device,
it will take some time for your graphical environment
(X11/Wayland) to recognize and enable the virtual
input device. (Usually done by udev)
.
This package contains the daemon.
