XEV(1)                   USER COMMANDS                     XEV(1)



NAME
     xev - print contents of X events

SYNOPSIS
     xev [-display _d_i_s_p_l_a_y_n_a_m_e] [-geometry _g_e_o_m]

DESCRIPTION
     _X_e_v creates a window and then asks the X server to  send  it
     notices  called _e_v_e_n_t_s whenever anything happens to the win-
     dow (such as being moved, resized,  typed  in,  clicked  in,
     etc.).   It is useful for seeing what causes events to occur
     and to display the information that they contain.

OPTIONS
     -display _d_i_s_p_l_a_y
             This option specifies the X server to contact.

     -geometry _g_e_o_m
             This option specifies the size  and/or  location  of
             the window.
