For Linux/X11 systems, adjusting setting on Lenovo Y50 (and possibly others) so that the button area of the touchpad is kept from also being regarded as a mouse movement area, preventing awkward dragging when trying to click.

fix-touchpad-bottom-edge.sh

#!/bin/bash
boundary="`synclient -l | grep RightButtonAreaTop | sed 's/RightButtonAreaTop//' | sed 's/[ =]//g'`"
echo Setting boundary to "$boundary"
synclient AreaBottomEdge="$boundary"
