  XEV(1)              X Version 11 (Release 4)               XEV(1)



  NAME
       xev - print contents of X events


  SYNOPSIS
       xev [-display displayname] [-geometry geom]

  DESCRIPTION
       Xev creates a window and then asks the X server to send it
       notices called events whenever anything happens to the
       window (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 display
               This option specifies the X server to contact.

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