jstest - Man Page

jstest [--normal] [--old] [--event] [--nonblock] [--select] <device-name>

jstest can be used to test all the features of the Linux joystick API, including non-blocking and select(2) access, as well as version 0.x compatibility mode.

It is also intended to serve as an example implementation for those who wish to learn how to write their own joystick using applications.

Same as --normal, using 0.x interface.
