+# buffyboard processes system-wide /dev/input/* events (touchscreen, mouse)
+# and outputs events to a virtual input device.
+# this plays well with keyboard-only software like getty,
+# but for any programs which use both pointer inputs and keyboard inputs (e.g. desktop environments)
+# you likely want to instruct them to ignore the buffyboard device, else clicking or tapping might trigger
+# both a mouse event *and* an undesired keyboard event via buffyboard.
