Based on the keys pressed / released (or auto-released; holding down certain keys for too long makes them auto-release) different actions are executed. Some examples: - - - write letters and numbers using 0-9 keys (simulating 3x4 keypad phones - key "2" switches between a-b-c-2, key 9 switches between w-x-y-z-9) ( xdotool needed ) - move mouse cursor using up/down/left/right (the longer you hold the key down, the faster it goes) and click (enter = left click; channels list = right click) ( xdotool needed ) - opening web sites in chomium (red key for YouTube, green for Google, blue for incognito window) - -If you want to use firefox instead of chromium, replace "chromium" with "firefox" in the script below. -Alternatively, you can just install chromium: +write letters and numbers using 0-9 keys (simulating 3x4 keypad phones - key "2" switches between a-b-c-2, +key 9 switches between w-x-y-z-9) ( xdotool needed ) +move mouse cursor using up/down/left/right (the longer you hold the key down, the faster it goes) and +click (enter = left click; channels list = right click) ( xdotool needed ) +opening web sites in chomium (red key for YouTube, green for Google, blue for incognito window) -`sudo apt-get install chromium-browser` +If you want to use firefox instead of chromium, replace "chromium" with "firefox" in the script.
