Qjoypad
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Qjoypad is an application for Linux written using the Qt toolkit. It is a gamepad translator; it takes input from a gamepad (or similar device that uses the joystick interface in the Linux kernel) and translates it to key strokes or mouse actions.[1]
Since it depends upon the X extension library to create the key strokes, it can only function in an X environment. The same goes with the joystick interface.
There is another program, rejoystick, that uses the cross platform comptatible library SDL to read input from the gamepad.[2]
