DESCRIPTION

This program is now deprecated, please use

gpmconfig is a tool to configure gpm(1). It allows con
figuration of four things: mouse type, the device to use, respon
siveness and any additional arguments to be passed to gpm. You
will be offered the chance to test the configuration.
gpmconfig offers you the chance to run the gpm-mouse-test
program which is designed to help you determine the type of your
mouse and which device it attaches to.
OPTIONS
--norestart
Don't restart gpm when configuration has finished.

FILES

gpmconfig reads and writes the configuration from
/etc/gpm.conf. This file is usually created when the gpm package
is installed for the first time. /etc/init.d/gpm reads the con
figuration from /etc/gpm.conf.

DIAGNOSTICS

None.

BUGS

There is no option to configure gpm's -l option, other
than by using the append string.
