Activating TAP to click with xinput via command line :
1.Find your device id (in my case 13 bellow ):
root@lubuntu:~# xinput list
Look for:
⎜ ↳ ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad id=13 [slave pointer (2)]
2.Find the "Tapping" desired option code (in my case 283 bellow) :
root@lubuntu:~# xinput list-props 13
Look for:
libinput Tapping Enabled (283): 0
3.Activate it with "1" using:
root@lubuntu:~# xinput set-prop 13 283 1
4.List props once more to confirm:
root@lubuntu:~# xinput list-props 13
Look for:
libinput Tapping Enabled (283): 1
Enjoy.

I'm new to Linux and just installed Lubuntu on an older Toshiba laptop (dual boot with Windows 10).
I do not know how to create a file then add content as shown. Do I need to fully educate myself on file creation, editing system files and things like that before I can understand the instructions here (feels like I'm learning DOS again)? Where is a good Linux primer?
