Please support enabling/disabling touch via a button by doing a "xsetwacom set <id> button <n> touchtoggle" or something more appropriate.</n></id>

Implementation should be similar as to "xsetwacom set <id> button <n> modetoggle" for switching between relative and absolute mode.</n></id>

    I would suggest taking a look at xbindkeys. This program can run in the background and run commands in response to keypresses. Since xsetwacom is already capable of enabling/disabing the touchpad, this provides a way to have a pad button (which can synthesize keypresses) do it.

    1) Install xbindkeys
    2) Add the contents of the attached file to your .xbindkeysrc, replacing <id> as necessary.
    3) Configure a pad button to press CTRL+SHIFT+T
    4) Start xbindkeys and verify it works
    5) Have xbindkeys start along with your X session in the future (e.g. add it to .xinitrc, .xprofile, or your desktop manager's list of startup programs)</id>

    Linuxwacom has moved from Sourceforge to Github. If this is still an issue please reopen this request there.
