- uuuunnnncccclllluuuutttttttteeeerrrr removes the cursor image from the screen so that
- it does not obstruct the area you are looking at after it
- has not moved for a given time. It does not do this if the
- cursor is in the root window or a button is down. It tries
- to ignore jitter (small movements due to noise) if you have
- a mouse that twitches.
-
- OOOOPPPPTTTTIIIIOOOONNNNSSSS
- -display
- is followed by the display to open.
-
- -idle
- is followed by the number of seconds between polls for
- idleness. The default is 5.
-
- -jitter
- is followed by the amount of movement of the pointer
- that is to be ignored and considered as random noise.
- The default is 0.
-
- -grab
- means use the original method of grabbing the pointer
- in order to remove the cursor. This often doesn't
- interoperate too well with some window managers.
-
- -noevents
- stops unclutter sending a pseudo EnterNotify event to
- the X client whose cursor has been stolen. Sending the
- event helps programs like emacs think that they have
- not lost the pointer focus. This option is provided
- for backwards compatibility in case some clients get
- upset.
-
- -reset
- resets the timeout for idleness after the cursor is
- restored for some reason (such as a window being pushed
- or popped) even though the x y coordinates of the
- cursor have not changed. Normally, the cursor would
- immediately be removed again.
-
- -root
- means remove the cursor even if it is on the root
- background, where in principle it should not be

- obscuring anything useful.
-
- -onescreen
- restricts unclutter to the single screen specified as
- display, or the default screen for the display.
- Normally, unclutter will unclutter all the screens on a
- display.
-
- -not is followed by a list of window names where the cursor
- should not be removed. The first few characters of the
- WM_NAME property on the window need to match one the
- listed names. This argument must be the last on the
- command line.
-
- LLLLIIIIMMMMIIIITTTTAAAATTTTIIIIOOOONNNNSSSS
- Unfortunately, clients like emacs set different text cursor
- shapes depending on whether they have pointer focus or not,
- and so not only does the cursor pixture go, but the text
- cursor image changes. Even more sadly, some window managers
- like to remove keyboard focus if pointer focus is lost.
-
- DDDDIIIIAAAAGGGGNNNNOOOOSSSSTTTTIIIICCCCSSSS
- The message
-
- someone created a sub-window to my sub-window!
-
- means that unclutter thinks a second unclutter is running,
- and tried to steal the cursor by creating a sub-window to
- the sub-window already used to steal the cursor. This
- situation quickly deteriorates into a fight no one can win,
- so it is detected when possible and the program gives up.
