Double fingers = middle click. Triple = "bugger all" or middle click
xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 3 2" to remap right to middle and vice versa. I have the bits now to run this stuff without debian as outlined: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...&postcount=107 will stick it in the mix. thanks all for your help. |

Excerpt from 5.3.0 kernel sources: Spoiler:
KT touchscreen driver has similar explicit limitation for number of simultaneous touches: Code:
$ grep -B1 -m1 MAX_CONTACTS drivers/input/touchscreen/zforceint.h /* Device specific configuration */ #define MAX_CONTACTS 2 // Maximum number of contacts the sensor can report Code:
$ grep mt_create_slots drivers/input/touchscreen/zforce.c input_mt_create_slots(tdev, MAX_CONTACTS); Spoiler:

.. and use three styli simultaneously to operate the Kindle..
On a serious note: my goal was more practical. I was trying to find a neutral gesture which could serve as a user special action introducer, and at the same time, minimally disturb the standard Kindle software. Based on what I observed, the "Tool Tripletap" was excluded from consideration. Events of this kind are not signaled (by the driver?) and do not reach the application. The reason for that is currently unknown. |

For example short press selects item, long press opens context menu. |

If it will help you, you can intercept user press on Menu button with lipc-set-prop command (but don't use double click event, as shown in linked example, it's very hard to make double click). interrogatePillow property of com.lab126.pillow allows to execute arbitrary JavaScript code in context of HTML page representing top bar (with search field, Menu button, etc.). With manipulating of DOM you can also add your own button to top bar. It will be a bit like GUI launcher, but it will work not only at Home screen. |

pcmanfm
If you want to test pcmanfm, here is a binary for KT. I only changed window title so that it is properly mapped in window manager. I didn't test it deeply, but it surely needs further development. It crashes sometimes and I suppose some windows may not open properly. It also misses some pixmaps etc. But you can get general idea of what it looks like in Kindle.
