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 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 display
             This option specifies the X server to contact.

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