Unclutter 2 0 5 Hydrocortisone Cream
Please don't flag this package as out-of-date. This package contains the original unclutter, written in the 90s and not updated since.
The unclutter package from the Arch repos ships the new unclutter-xfixes instead.
This package also applies patches that, among other things, implement additional arguments that unclutter-xfixes doesn't provide.

Thanks for this package. This is the only version of unclutter that doesn't cause problems for me with either xmonad or Firefox/Vimperator.
This article or section is out of date.
Reason: As noted by [1] the package source changed. Description from #unclutter-xfixes should be moved to the intro or a main section accordingly. Perhaps it is useful to create a new #Alternatives subsection for unclutter-patchedAUR along with the switch. (Discuss in Talk:Unclutter#)
Unclutter hides your X mouse cursor when you do not need it, to prevent it from getting in the way. You have only to move the mouse to restore the mouse cursor. Unclutter is very useful in tiling window managers where you do not need the mouse often.

Installation

Known bugs
Misbehaviour of the mouse cursor
If you experience issues when using unclutter in conjunction with a tiling window manager (such as xmonad or i3), install unclutter-xfixes-gitAUR instead or use the
-grab
option:Note: The
-grab
option breaks some screen locking applications such as slock and i3lock.Unclutter could cause unusual mouse behaviour in some SDL Games. The mouse cursor might be reset to some positions in the screen because ofthis problem. The details can be found here.
Unclutter 2 0 5 Sezonas
There are two known workarounds for this. You can either add
SDL_VIDEO_X11_DGAMOUSE=0
to your environment variables which does not work for all games or run unclutter with-grab
option. However, it is important to note that the grab option may cause some applications such as gksu to not work properly.Alternatives
unclutter-xfixes
Unclutter 2 0 5 Percent
Unclutter is a tool from the early 90s and has not been updated since. It works by creating fake windows or active pointer grabs, both of which often cause problems. By now, the X11 extensions Xinput2 and Xfixes have been released and are commonly found on most user systems. Using those, unclutter-xfixes-gitAUR can provide the cursor hiding functionality without interfering with any application.
As of December 2018, community/unclutter will actually ship this rewrite instead of the original[2][3].
xbanish
xbanish is another tool similar to unclutter, but works in a different way. Instead of using cursor movements, xbanish hides the cursor during typing. You can grab it on the AUR as xbanishAUR or xbanish-gitAUR.
