[feature request] Option for not centering mouse and only allow one instance #76

Hi I have some suggestions that would be very good to have, but of course since this can be a "not everyone taste" feature, if implemented it could be enable by the config file:

Well I think these are two very useful features to help the behavior of the app.

It may be late but since I have been redirect here by searching if it was possible, I feel like I have to share what I found.

I figured out how to get the behavior described in your first point.

Set the options as described below in the configuration file (e.g /etc/xdg/skippy-xd.rc)

movePointerOnStart = false
movePointerOnSelect = false

Moreover, your second point is not relevant in my case, since only one instance is executed, even if I use the hot corner several times. That being said, it may be influenced by my window manager.
