Comment (by pulkomandy):

In the comment at the start of the sourcecode I found this:
https://github.com/HaikuArchives/PadBlocker/blob/master/PadBlocker.cpp

Note:
makes a settings file in {{{home/config/settings/PadBlocker_settings}}} .

Just a text file,

containing the sensitivity threshold in thousandths of
a second. This number represents the delay between the last
B_KEY_UP message and when the filter will allow
a B_MOUSE_DOWN message. Eg, if less than _threshold has
transpired between a B_KEY_DOWN and a B_MOUSE_DOWN, the mouse
down event will be skipped, cast into oblivion.

So you just need to create that file and store the slider value in it.
To write a file, you can use BFile (which is a BDataIO), or if you already
know them, usual C (fprinf) or C++ (iostream) file operations.
