Package Request: easystroke #842

Open Steinhagen opened 5 years ago

Steinhagen commented 5 years ago

Easystroke is a gesture-recognition application for X11. Gestures or strokes are movements that you make with you mouse (or your pen, finger etc.) while holding down a specific mouse button. Easystroke will execute certain actions if it recognizes the stroke; currently easystroke can emulate key presses, execute shell commands, hold down modifiers and emulate a scroll wheel. The program was designed with Tablet PCs in mind and can be used effectively even without access to a keyboard. Easystroke tries to provide an intuitive and efficient user interface, while at the same time being highly configurable and offering many advanced features.

This has had no releases since 2013 and no commits since 2016. Is this actually maintained?

At the present time, to my knowledge, it isn't. However, there isn't any similar software that provides this type of functionality.

Personally, I'm using this software since 2013 on multiple different distributions (Debian, Fedora and Arch). They all still provide it to this day in their official repos. It would be great to have this productivity software in the CL repository as well.
