GlovePIE VS windigo

I tried to use that program years ago, wasn't really satisfied. I believe there's a program that will let you use the keyboard as a... keyboard, I guess. https://github.com/Ravbug/GlovePIE

In theory you could use GlovePIE to map one of the keyboards to buttons in a virtual joystick.

I use GlovePIE to get around most of those. It's annoying that I have to set that up in the first place, but it works well.

The more boring way is install GlovePIE (see https://github.com/Ravbug/GlovePIE for an preservation archive site as the original site has fallen into disrepair) & use an IR sensor bar (like the original Wii sensor bar, which is just a set of 2 IR transmitters that the Wii used as a fixed reference point) to use it as an HID, like a mouse.

https://github.com/Ravbug/GlovePIE i use a software called glovepie to interpret MIDI inputs as keyboard presses. with this software you can use any MIDI device to emulate keyboards, mice, controllers, or whatever you want. here is my script that i created to use my piano as input for Lunatic Rave 2 and similar rhythm games as an example. There is also a built in GUI based key mapper which is helpful to set up MIDI devices (just press a button on the device and then the button you want to emulate).

Nice. The language looks really nice! I started out with GlovePIE (site went down about 1-2 years ago) (image). It was more a hotkey scripting/assigning language, allowing multiple types of syntax (bash or c like). I used it to map my Wii Remote to the keyboard and initially played some games using the classic controller mapped to mouse and keyboard.

You could try using Freepie or Glovepie this is how I bind my wii controllers to PC games.

Check out GlovePie.

You can use GlovePie on windows to have it output MIDI. I have been using it for years now. If you want the script I run for it feel free to DM me.

Just cleaning it to connect it to my PC using Glovepie: https://github.com/Ravbug/GlovePIE/releases/

I'm writing native Windows apps in Go with Windigo, as a replacement for C++.

I created a couple native Windows apps using Windigo, so it's clearly possible to do the same in Linux, probably with gotk3.

Windigo for low level and native Windows stuff has been extremely useful to me.

I also use Go with VSCode on Windows, and I develop a rather large project. If I change many things at the same time, it may hang, so I have to reload VSCode, but that's it. Nothing serious.

Fyne is just really ugly for me.. I'm trying to learn more about GIO lately (gioui.org) which seems to have a great potential. However you request is very simple: native Windows Gui. And there are few libraries for that: - https://github.com/gonutz/wui - https://github.com/lxn/walk - https://github.com/tadvi/winc - https://github.com/rodrigocfd/windigo

In Windigo there are some specific implementations for x32 and x64 platforms, for example.
