28.Sh NAME
29.Nm wsp
30.Nd Wellspring touchpad driver
31.Sh SYNOPSIS
32To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines into
33your kernel configuration file:
34.Bd -ragged -offset indent
35.Cd "device wsp"
36.Cd "device hid"
37.Cd "device usb"
38.Ed
39.Pp
40Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time,
41place the following line in
42.Xr loader.conf 5 :
43.Bd -literal -offset indent
44wsp_load="YES"
45.Ed
46.Sh DESCRIPTION
47The
48.Nm
49driver provides support for the Apple Internal Trackpad
50device found in many Apple laptops.
51.Pp
52The driver simulates a three-button mouse using multi-finger tap
53detection.
54A single-finger press generates a left button click.
55A two-finger tap maps to the right button; whereas a three-finger tap
56gets treated as a middle button click.
57.Pp
58.Nm
59supports dynamic reconfiguration using
60.Xr sysctl 8
61through nodes under
62.Nm hw.usb.wsp .
63Pointer sensitivity can be controlled using the sysctl tunable
64.Nm hw.usb.wsp.scale_factor .
65Tap to left-click can be controlled using the sysctl tunable
66.Nm hw.usb.wsp.enable_single_tap_clicks ,
67set to 0 to disable single tap clicks or 1 to enable them (default).
68Movement on the trackpad following a partially-released click can be
69controlled using the sysctl tunable
70.Nm hw.usb.wsp.enable_single_tap_movement ,
71set to 0 to disable the movement on the trackpad until a full release
72or 1 to allow the continued movement (default).
73.Nm hw.usb.wsp.max_finger_area
74defines the maximum area on the trackpad which is registered as a
75finger (lower for greater palm detection).
76.Nm hw.usb.wsp.max_double_tap_distance
77defines the maximum distance between two finger clicks or taps which may
78register as a double-click.
79Z-Axis sensitivity can be controlled using the sysctl tunable
80.Nm hw.usb.wsp.z_factor .
81Z-Axis inversion can be controlled using the sysctl tunable
82.Nm hw.usb.wsp.z_invert ,
83set to 0 to disable (default) or 1 to enable inversion.
84.Sh FILES
85.Nm
86creates a blocking pseudo-device file,
87.Pa /dev/wsp0 ,
88which presents the mouse as a
89.Em sysmouse
90or
91.Em mousesystems
92type device--see
93.Xr moused 8
94for an explanation of these mouse
95types.
