- Description:
- This program creates four pointer barriers around each XRandR screen,
thus effectively jailing your mouse pointer to one physical screen.
Pointer barriers are mostly useful when there is more than one physical
screen connected to your computer. Properly placed barriers can then
make you feel like you're sitting in front of only one screen: When you
throw your mouse in the upper right corner, it does not suddenly switch
to another monitor.

x11/xpointerbarrier: New port: Pointer barriers to jail the mouse within a
screen
This program creates four pointer barriers around each XRandR screen,
thus effectively jailing your mouse pointer to one physical screen.
Pointer barriers are mostly useful when there is more than one physical
screen connected to your computer. Properly placed barriers can then
make you feel like you're sitting in front of only one screen: When you
throw your mouse in the upper right corner, it does not suddenly switch
to another monitor.
