myshenyatko

Terminal UI for managing macOS mouse, trackpad, cursor, and keyboard settings.

Reads and writes macOS defaults directly — no System Preferences needed.

Features

• Mouse — tracking speed, acceleration, scroll wheel, natural scroll, swipe navigation
• Mouse Hardware — button mode, scroll axes, momentum scroll, tap/swipe gestures (Magic Mouse)
• Trackpad — tracking speed, force click, secondary click, corner click, tap to click
• Trackpad Hardware — dragging, three-finger drag, pinch, rotate, swipe gestures, click pressure
• Scroll & Windows — scrollbar visibility, smooth scrolling, title bar behavior, spring-loaded folders
• Cursor & Accessibility — cursor size, scroll-wheel zoom, reduce motion, shake to locate
• Keyboard — key repeat rate/delay, press-and-hold, Fn key behavior
• Text Input — auto-correct, auto-capitalize, smart quotes/dashes, double-space period

Settings are only shown if your hardware supports them (e.g. Magic Mouse settings are hidden if no mouse domain exists).

Settings that aren't yet configured on your system can still be changed — they start from a sensible default when you first interact with them.
