(Paket joystick)

Project Homepage

Options:

1. X Send X events. May be compiled out of your copy of joy2key.

1. rawconsole

For SVGALIB and similar programs that put the keyboard in raw mode. Sends scancodes. May be compiled out

           of your copy of joy2key.

1. terminal

Send ascii characters. May be compiled out of your copy of joy2key.

1. axis Specifies actions to send when passing low/high values for each axis. Specified in pairs, from axis0 …

axisN, that is, the X axis is axis0, then the Y axis (axis1), then if you have a joystick hat that may be

           axis 2 and 3, etc.  To figure out which axis is which, use the jstest program that comes with the joystick
           driver.

1. buttons

Similar to -arrows, but for buttons. Goes from button0 … buttonN, specifying key to send for each but-

           ton on joystick.  Use the jstest program to determine the numbering for each button.

1. thresh

Specifies low/high thresholds to use (i.e. at what point moving the stick or pressing the gamepad triggers

           an event) in pairs, for each joystick axis.

1. dev Specifies joystick device to use. Defaults /dev/input/js0 (first joystick)

1. autorepeat

Turns on and optionally specifies autorepeat frequency, i.e. the number of times per second a button

           which is held down will be repeated.

1. deadzone

Controls sensitivity when manually calibrating.

1. rcfile

Sets the rc file to look in.

1. config

Reads in a config in an rc file.

START doom
# Since sdoom is a console application, you either
# A] must run joy2key on the same virtual console as sdoom
#    (try joy2key -config doom &)
#    (don't forget to kill joy2key when you are done, or 
#     moving the joystick will continue to send keys to
#     the console)
#                           or
# B] run joy2key as root (so it can send keypresses to virtual
#    consoles it doesn't own)
#    (again, remeber to kill it when you are done)
# send keyup codes
