#### Per-application X11 mouse button, scroll, and chord remapper with Shift Layers

A lightweight Linux X11 alternative to X-Mouse Button Control for
per-application mouse button, wheel, and chord remapping across multiple
Shift Layers. Independent open-source project, not affiliated with,
sponsored by, or endorsed by Highresolution Enterprises or X-Mouse Button
Control. Uses standard X11 window class detection, pointer polling, passive
XGrabButton remapping, XTest input dispatch, and EWMH window actions on X11;
Wayland-native sessions restrict external X11 pointer remapping.

FEATURES

* Per-Application WM\_CLASS Profiles: automatically detect the active X11
  window WM\_CLASS and apply custom mappings for browsers, code editors, file
  managers, or any window picked with the interactive crosshair tool.
* 4 Shift Layers & Button Chords: map Middle (Btn 2), Side Back (Btn 8),
  Side Forward (Btn 9), Wheel Up/Down, and multi-button chords across four
  switchable layers via hotkeys, modifier hold, or button actions.
* Real X11 & EWMH Actions: emit key chords, insert text snippets, send
  scroll steps, or trigger minimize, maximize, close, and always-on-top.
* Live Monitor & JSON Presets: inspect live pointer coordinates, held
  buttons, open X11 windows, audit firing logs, import/export JSON profiles,
  and switch between English and Vietnamese interfaces.

## Enable snaps on openSUSE and install App Mouse Button Remapper

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

Snap can be installed from the command line on openSUSE Leap 15.x and Tumbleweed.

You need first add the *snappy* repository from the terminal. Choose the appropriate command depending on your installed openSUSE flavor.

Tumbleweed:

```
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Tumbleweed snappy
```

Leap 15.x:

```
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Leap_15.6 snappy
```

If needed, Swap out `openSUSE_Leap_15.` for, `openSUSE_Leap_16.0` if you’re using a different version of openSUSE.

With the repository added, import its GPG key:

```
sudo zypper --gpg-auto-import-keys refresh
```

Finally, upgrade the package cache to include the new *snappy* repository:

```
sudo zypper dup --from snappy
```

Snap can now be installed with the following:

```
sudo zypper install snapd
```

You then need to either reboot, logout/login or `source /etc/profile` to have /snap/bin added to PATH.
Additionally, enable and start both the *snapd* and the *snapd.apparmor* services with the following commands:

```
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor
```
