Information for package keyd:
-----------------------------
Repository : openSUSE-Tumbleweed-Oss
Name : keyd
Version : 2.4.3-1.4
Arch : x86_64
Vendor : openSUSE
Installed Size : 1.3 MiB
Installed : No
Status : not installed
Source package : keyd-2.4.3-1.4.src
Upstream URL : https://github.com/rvaiya/keyd
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).
