The input category contains a number of keys that define how input is handled by the system. It affects the keyboard and mouse setup as well as how the UI responds to various user actions.
blinkingCursor = <Boolean>
If true, this key forces the text cursor to be a blinking cursor; it defaults to true. The screen dumper application requires a non-blinking cursor.
blinkingCursor = true blinkingCursor = false
clickToType = <Boolean>
If true, this key requires the user to click in a window before the focus will change to that window. When this key is false, the UI will invoke a "real estate" mode, wherein the user's typing will go to the window under the mouse, whether the mouse was clicked there or not. The default is true (click required).
clickToType = true clickToType = false
doubleClickTime = <number of ticks>
This field specifies the time threshhold between clicks which should be recognized as a double-click. This time is expressed in 1/60th second "ticks". The default value is 20.
keyboardOnly = <Boolean>
If true, this key indicates that GEOS is running on a system with only a keyboard (no mouse) for input. The default is false.
keyboardOnly = true keyboardOnly = false
left handed = <Boolean>
If true, this key switches the left and right mouse button significance. For single-button mice, there is no effect; for three-button mice, the middle button stays the same. The default is false.
left handed = true left handed = false
mouseAccelMultiplier = <number>
This key gives a multiplier to allow mouse acceleration along the following rule: any single event pixel movement beyond a given threshold (see mouseAccelThreshold ) is multiplied by the multiplier. The multiplier defaults to one, which provides no acceleration. (A multiplier of three or four is fast.)
mouseAccelMultiplier = 1 ; no acceleration mouseAccelMultiplier = 4 ; very fast
mouseAccelThreshold = <number>
This key gives the mouse acceleration threshold used with mouseAccelMultiplier (above) to provide mouse acceleration. This threshold is the number of pixels the mouse must move before acceleration is invoked.
mouseAccelThreshold = 5
noKeyboard = <Boolean>
If true, this key indicates that the system running GEOS has no keyboard. The default is false.
noKeyboard = true noKeyboard = false
numberOfMouseButtons = <number>
This key defines the number of buttons the mouse has. This may be the value one, two, or three. The default is three.
numberOfMouseButtons = 1 numberOfMouseButtons = 2 numberOfMouseButtons = 3
quickShutdownOnReset = <Boolean>
If true, this key forces a Ctrl-Alt-Del sequence to force a dirty shutdown of GEOS. This defaults to true.
quickShutdownOnReset = true quickShutdownOnReset = false
reboot on reset = <Boolean>
If true, this key causes a Ctrl-Alt-Del sequence to warm-boot the machine rather than exit quickly to DOS. The default is false.
reboot on reset = true reboot on reset = false
selectDisplaysMenu = <Boolean>
If true, this key reverses the left and right mouse buttons with respect to menus in some specific UIs. (For example, the left (select) button will open the menu, but the right (features) button will show and execute the default menu item.) The default is false.
selectDisplaysMenu = true selectDisplaysMenu = false
selectRaises = <Boolean>
If true, this key causes a select-button click to raise the window in which the click occurred, if the window was behind other windows. The window will not be raised above other windows that are always kept on top (e.g. the help window and desk accessory applications). The default is true.
selectRaises = true selectRaises = false
