The command "hidd" stands for "Human Interface Device Daemon." It is a command-line utility in Linux systems that manages connections with Human Interface Devices (HID) such as keyboards, mice, and other input devices that use Bluetooth technology.
The hidd command allows users to start, stop, and manage the HID daemon service. It provides functionality to connect, disconnect, and monitor HID devices. This command is particularly useful for troubleshooting and configuring HID devices within a Linux environment.
Some common uses of the hidd command include pairing and connecting HID devices, getting information about connected devices, and managing the HID daemon service.
However, it is important to note that the hidd command has been deprecated in newer versions of Linux, and many distributions now use other tools, such as "bluetoothctl," to manage Bluetooth devices.
