# Description: This script is used to hide the mouse cursor when it is inactive, both in kiosk and borgerpc.
# The default time for the cursor to be hidden is 5 seconds.
# It takes one parameter that can be True / False
#
# The borgerpc does not need a service to start the unclutter,
# it is an option set in the /etc/default/unclutter configuration file, look at the man page for more options.
#
# Note: The unclutter package has "unclutter-startup" as "recommends", which handles starting unclutter at
# startup via /etc/X11/Xsession.d/
