xev creates a window and then asks the X server to send it X11 events whenever anything happens to the window (such as it being moved, resized, typed in, clicked in, etc.). You can also attach it to an existing window. It is useful for seeing what causes events to occur and to display the information that they contain; it is essentially a debugging and development tool, and should not be needed in normal usage.
I removed xrandr bits and pieces and did a few minor alterations to make it build with system libraries, headers and MIPSpro.
Bug reports for this version should go to SGUG Discord or the forum at:
Please do not bother the nice folks at the X consortium with this hack.
Default prefix is /usr/local, edit Makefile if you want something else.
