Greetings all;
Is there such a critter as a mouse blanker in the xorg kit of
utilities?
Sorry, I've never heard of a "mouse blanker" before - what would such
a program do?
It shuts off the pointer when you start typing, and brings it back when
the mouse is moved.
Ah, that'd normally be handled by the text entry widget in the toolkit.
I don't know of any standard program that monitors for typing to determine
when to hide the mouse in other applications - it's tricky to monitor input
events without interfering with apps (though obviously not impossible as
xspy & other keyloggers have long proven).
