"X Power Tools"


The following sections offers brief descriptions of the main options in each code
section.
ServerLayout
The ServerLayout section of the file is optional??”at least for most simple configurations
??”but it is almost always present in a configuration file. This is the ServerLayout
section from our sample configuration:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Default Layout"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection
The entries in this section are:
Identifier
The name given to this particular layout. This can be selected when the X server
is started by specifying -layout identifier as a command-line option.
Screen
Associates a screen with the display. To associate multiple screens with the display,
use multiple Screen lines. The arguments are the screen number, the Screen
section identifier, and the position of the screen (which is really only useful when
using multiple screens together); see Section 4.4.
InputDevice
Associates an InputDevice section with this display. The arguments are the
InputDevice identifier, followed by the device type in double quotes. The device
type must be CorePointer, CoreKeyboard, or SendCoreEvents (or the equivalent
AlwaysCore).
