Samuel Rodríguez Pérez f44235f7e5 input: Implement software button areas (disabled by default)
input touchpad settings header:
- software button areas (enabled by default)
- Emulation of buttons clicks based on which small area
  assinged by each button is pressed. For instance, a
  software button area on the bottom of the touchpad
  could be divided on 3 subareas one for each button.

This new feature is useful for clickpads that are input devices
lacking a separated set of buttons from the touch area. However,
we may prefer to make the GUI better suppot "single button" devices.
Disabled by default as we don't currently have a way to adjust the
default settings according to the presence of physical buttons,
and having this disabled yields an OK experience on all machines.
Having the soft buttons in addition to physical buttons would just
be too strange.

input preflet:
- Implement software button areas

input mouse:
- Handle and provide new settings for software button areas

input mouse mm:
- Implement software button areas in the user space
- At the moment only a bottom located software button area
  simulating 3 different buttons is enabled.
  There is a working implementation 2 buttons only but not
  enabled in the code base.
  TODO for other type of software button areas is there.

Haiku

Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs

Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.

Goals

  • Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
  • Clean, clear, concise code.
  • Unified desktop environment.

Trying Haiku

Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.

Compiling Haiku

See ReadMe.Compiling.
