* much more work on "-scrollcopyrect" mode... getting usable.
* remove -pointer_mode 3, shift everyone back down
* -dbg "crash shell" for debugging
* -add_keysyms now the default, periodically clears if needed.
* try to autodetect if -xkb would be a good idea.
* improve keycode guessing for -xkb mode (force ISO_Level3_Shift)
* -remap DEAD, etc. for dead/mute keys remappings.
2005-05-02 Karl Runge <runge@karlrunge.com>
* initial support for using RECORD to detect some types of window
scrolls. This is "-scrollcopyrect" mode, use -noscrollcopyrect

Dead keys: "dead" (or silent, mute) keys are keys that
do not produce a character but must be followed by a 2nd
keystroke. This is often used for accenting characters,
e.g. to put "'" on top of "a" by pressing the dead
key and then "a". Note that this interpretation
is not part of core X11, it is up to the toolkit or
application to decide how to react to the sequence.
The X11 names for these keysyms are "dead_grave",
"dead_acute", etc. However some VNC viewers send the
keysyms "grave", "acute" instead thereby disabling
the accenting. To work around this \fB-remap\fR can be used.

Additional remaps may also be supplied via commas,

.IP
For keystroke scroll detection, only apply the RECORD
heuristics to the comma separated list of keysyms in
\fIlist\fR. You may find the RECORD overhead for every
one of your keystrokes disrupts typing too much, but you
don't want to turn it off completely with "\fB-scr\fR \fImouse\fR"
and \fB-scr_parms\fR does not work or is too confusing.
.IP
The listed keysyms can be numeric or the keysym
names in the <X11/keysymdef.h> header file or from the
.IR xev (1)
program. Example: "\fB-scr_keys\fR \fIUp,Down,Return\fR".
One probably wants to have application specific lists
(e.g. for terminals, etc) but that is too icky to think
about for now...
.IP
If \fIlist\fR begins with the "-" character the list
is taken as an exclude list: all keysyms except those
list will be considered. The special string "builtin"
expands to an internal list of keysyms that are likely
to cause scrolls. BTW, by default modifier keys,
Shift_L, Control_R, etc, are skipped since they almost
never induce scrolling by themselves.
.PP
\fB-scr_parms\fR \fIstring\fR
.IP
Set various parameters for the scrollcopyrect mode.
The format is similar to that for \fB-wireframe\fR and packed
with lots of parameters:
.IP
Format: T+B+L+R,t1+t2+t3,s1+s2+s3+s4+s5
Default: 0+64+32+32,0.02+0.10+0.9,0.03+0.06+0.5+0.1+5.0
.IP
If you leave nothing between commas: ",," the default
value is used. If you don't specify enough commas,
the trailing parameters are set to their defaults.
.IP
"T+B+L+R" indicates four integers for how close in
pixels the pointer has to be from the Top, Bottom, Left,
or Right edges of the window to consider scrollcopyrect.
If \fB-wireframe\fR overlaps it takes precedence. This is a
speedup to quickly exclude a window from being watched
for scrollcopyrect: set them all to zero to not try
the speedup (things like selecting text will likely
be slower).
.IP
"t1+t2+t3" specify three floating point times in
seconds that apply to scrollcopyrect detection with
*Keystroke* input: t1 is how long to wait after a key
is pressed for the first scroll, t2 is how long to keep
looking after a Keystroke scroll for more scrolls.
t3 is how frequently to try to update surrounding
scrollbars outside of the scrolling area (0.0 to
disable)
.IP
"s1+s2+s3+s4+s5" specify five floating point times
in seconds that apply to scrollcopyrect detection with
*Mouse* input: s1 is how long to wait after a mouse
button is pressed for the first scroll, s2 is how long
to keep waiting for additional scrolls after the first
Mouse scroll was detected. s3 is how frequently to
try to update surrounding scrollbars outside of the
scrolling area (0.0 to disable). s4 is how long to
buffer pointer motion (to try to get fewer, bigger
mouse scrolls). s5 is the maximum time to spend just
updating the scroll window without updating the rest
of the screen.
