+.Sh NAME
+.Nm atp
+.Nd Apple touchpad driver
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines into
+your kernel configuration file:
+.Bd -ragged -offset indent
+.Cd "device atp"
+.Cd "device usb"
+.Ed
+.Pp
+Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in
+.Xr loader.conf 5 :
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+atp_load="YES"
+.Ed
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides support for the Apple Internal Trackpad device found in many
+Apple laptops. Older (Fountain/Geyser) and the newer (Wellspring) trackpad
+families are all supported through a unified driver.
+.Pp
+The driver simulates a three\-button mouse using multi\-finger tap detection.
+Single finger tap generates a left\-button click; two\-finger tap maps to the
+middle button; whereas a three\-finger tap gets treated as a right button
+click.
+.Pp
+There is support for 2\-finger horizontal scrolling, which translates to
+page\-back/forward events; vertical multi\-finger scrolling emulates the mouse
+wheel.
+.Pp
+A double\-tap followed by a drag is treated as a selection gesture; a
+virtual left\-button click is assumed for the lifespan of the drag.
+.Pp
+.Nm
+supports dynamic reconfiguration using
+.Xr sysctl 8 ;
+through nodes under
+.Nm hw.usb.atp .
+Pointer sensitivity can be controlled using the sysctl tunable
+.Nm hw.usb.atp.scale_factor .
+Smaller values of
+.Fa scale_factor
+result in faster movement.
+.
+A simple high-pass filter is used to reduce contributions
+from small movements; the threshold for this filter may be controlled by
+.Nm hw.usb.atp.small_movement .
+.
+The maximum tolerable duration of a touch gesture is controlled by
+.Nm hw.usb.atp.touch_timeout
+(in microseconds); beyond this period, touches are considered to be slides.
+(This conversion also happens when a finger stroke accumulates at least
+.Nm hw.usb.atp.slide_min_movement
+movement (in mickeys).
+.
+The maximum time (in microseconds) to allow an association between a double-
+tap and drag gesture may be controlled by
+.Nm hw.usb.atp.double_tap_threshold .
+.
+Should one want to disable tap detection and rely only upon physical button
+presses, set the following sysctl to a value of 2
+.Nm hw.usb.atp.tap_minimum .
+.
