I am. I have a tablet that I've looked at converting into a mini linux
box and was wondering if a solution like this existed.
So now I've read through Peter Hutterer's blog, where he explains, how
to get multitouch events from C code, but I'm rather confused.
As far as I understand, StumpWM listens to events from X server using
CLX library, and then dispatches those events to opened windows.
From that I'd expect, that CLX would be heavily using FFI's to call
C-functions, but the only C-related code there seems to be in the
socket.c file.
And absence of touch* events in CLX's DECLARE-EVENT macros seems to
indicate, that there's no multitouch support already in CLX.
So:
1) does event-dispatching indeed occur like this (X server -> StumpWM ->
windows), or windows receive events somehow directly from X?
2) How does CLX manage to avoid all this fuss with FFI-ying bunch of
C-functions? Perhaps, it's using some yet more lower-level API?

Hello everyone,
I've recently bought x86 tablet and managed to run on it linux +
SBCL + StumpWM just fine.
However, interaction still heavily relies on keyboard, and I want
to make it, somewhat useable in 'touchscreen-only' mode)
I've quickly hacked
https://github.com/mabragor/stump-touchy-mode-line, which,
together with TouchEgg launched
at startup, makes the whole setup useable.
So now I'm aimed at proper multitouch support within StumpWM, so
the question is: is anybody interested in this
other than me?
Best regards,
Alex
