option (example: cliclick -e 100 c:300,200 c:500,400
). The higher this value is (default: 0
), the more will mouse movements seem “natural” or “human-like”, which also implies: will be slower. If this option is used, the actual speed will also depend on the distance between the start and the end position, i.e. the time needed for moving will be higher if the distance is larger.stderr

Moreover, the destination of output from the “test” or “verbose” mode (option -m
) can be sent to stdout
(default), to stderr
, to the clipboard or a file. The syntax is -m test:stdout
(or simply -m test
, which is identical to the pre-v4 syntax and behavior), -m test:stderr
, -m test:clipboard
or -m test:/path/to/file.txt
. This all applies to -m verbose
, too.-d
