Multiple execution of commands

[MidnightNerd]

Hello, this code should allow users to execute code multiple times when making a swipe gesture.

There are some things that need to be mentioned: ~~1. CPU load is slightly higher than in previous version.~~ The impact on battery life isn't notable on modern machines. 2. The config file must specify the number of fingers. The config syntax is: gesture swipe direction numFingers Threshold command. -->Maybe its better to add a new command for the config file. ~~3. The command will be executed one time more at the end of the gesture.~~ (this is fixed)

Edit: here are two example configuration lines to try this feature(Volume control): #Swipe with 4 fingers up or down to increase/decrease Volume timeout 5 gesture swipe up 4 40 xdotool key XF86AudioRaiseVolume gesture swipe down 4 40 xdotool key XF86AudioLowerVolume

Maybe this is not really clear: This Patch is not for executing a specific command at the end of a swipe gesture multiple times, this Patch executes a command while the gesture is done.

I merged @MidnightNerd's code into the latest master on my Arch machine and installed it. Swipe to adjust volume works perfectly - thanks, @MidnightNerd!

For other Arch users, I modified the libinput-gestures PKGBUILD from AUR to use the local git repo where I merged MidnightNerd's code into the latest master:

3c3
< pkgver=2.62
---
> pkgver=2.70
15c15
< source=("$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz::$url/archive/$pkgver.tar.gz")
---
>   source=("git+file:///home/david/repos/libinput-gestures/src/$pkgname")

< md5sums=('03fcc64ffc0150ea6ddefb1f4af85edd')
---

<   cd "$pkgname-$pkgver"
---
>   cd "$pkgname"

THANK YOU!

Finally got around to trying this vs. the old one. This works perfectly and it's exactly what I wanted!

Why is this pull request still opened if it was merged?

[MidnightNerd]

i do not have much experience with git. As far as i can see the code wasn't merged.
