TABSET

tabset is a Linux command-line tool for configuring your drawing tablets.

The tool is based around the concept of configuration scripts, and follows a super simple, yet extensible configuration system. Each device you might own gets its own directory, and inside some simple metadata is stored along with a list of shell scripts you can use to set various xsetwacom options.

Installation

This crate can also be installed via cargo with:

cargo install tabset

Configuration

Configuration files are stored in ~/.config/tabset/. These files are simply sorted by directory. Here is a listing of my personal configs:

# ewpratten@ewpratten-desktop ~/.config/tabset $ tree
.
└── devices
    └── huion-kamvas-13
        ├── name
        ├── peripherals
        └── profiles
            ├── blender.sh
            ├── default.sh -> blender.sh
            └── disabled.sh

3 directories, 5 files

The name and peripherals files must exist for each device. name is mostly un-used at the moment, but should contain a friendly name for your device. peripherals is a list of strings that tabset will search for in the output of xsetwacom --list if you run the tabset check <device> command.

Each of the profile scripts just contain whatever configuration commands you want. You can see my blender one in the example config directory.
