This allows the user to use the +joystick with games that don't have joystick support. + +There are two modes of operation for **rejoystick**: the GUI configuration +mode, and daemon mode. + +To configure the axes/buttons **rejoystick** will map to keystrokes, +run **rejoystick** with no arguments. This will display a GUI which +you can use to set the mappings. When you're done, exit the program +(close its window). The mappings will be written to *~/.rejoystickrc*. +Although the configuration is graphical, it's recommended to run it +from a terminal (not a desktop launcher), so you can see its output. + +To run **rejoystick** as a daemon, run it with the **-d** option. It +will fork to the background, monitor the joystick, and generate +keystroke events according to the configuration in *~/.rejoystickrc*. + +To exit **rejoystick**, use "**killall -9 rejoystick**". If you want to +change the mappings, you'll have to kill the daemon and restart it, +since it won't re-read its config file. + +OPTIONS +======= + +-d + Run as a daemon.
