Time to keep the pointer motionless before a dwell click is per-
formed. Range: 0.2 - 3.0 seconds.
--ssc-time=FLOAT
Time to hold the primary mouse button before a simulated sec-
ondary click is performed. Range: 0.5 - 3.0 seconds.

Select a dwell mode. Available options: window - Select the
click type from a window or a panel applet. gesture - Perform

-s, --shutdown

FILES
mousetweaks.pid
