Steve I agree.
My point was that for the pokeys it was a waste. The whole point of using this
device is to unload HMI type I/O from more expensive mesa or other hardware. If
I was just looking for a device to emulate a keyboard I probably bought exactly
what you have.
The exercise I am looking at is to bypass the key mapping and just map the
physical I/O to hal. From there the user can decide where to send the signals.

My Xkeys based pendant is basically a programmable USB keypad. The 20
buttons simply emulate various keyboard shortcuts in axis, and double up
as a numeric keypad. It uses keyboard_hid. Not a waste - it's small,
convenient and totally coolant and swarf proof - more than can be said
of a keyboard :)
