Summary : A key remapping daemon for linux
Description :
Linux lacks a good key remapping solution.
In order to achieve satisfactory results a medley of tools need to be employed
(e.g xcape, xmodmap) with the end result often being tethered to a specified
environment (X11).
keyd attempts to solve this problem by providing a flexible system wide daemon
which remaps keys using kernel level input primitives (evdev, uinput).
