Oh, I misunderstood the question. It is about manual triggering the keyboard... as brianinmaine told, evtest can print parsed output of the touchpad input event devices.

twobob, do you want to trigger the keyboard popup in java code or in another program/script running parallel to luakit?

You might prefer "xev" to "evtest". You can run "xev -root" to get all events, mask events with "-event" or get events for a given window with "-id" or "-name".
