kandi X-RAY | qjoypad Summary
QJoyPad is a convenient little program with a Qt interface that converts movement and button presses on a gamepad or joystick into key presses, mouse clicks, and mouse movement in XWindows. It should work on almost every Linux system and with any Linux-supported gaming device. QJoyPad lets you play any XWindows game that uses input from the keyboard and mouse with a joystick device, even if the game doesn’t normally have joystick support. In addition, it’s a convenient companion for emulation software as it prevents the need for extra controller plugins and can remember multiple saved layouts. Also, QJoyPad can quickly swap between layouts whenever you change games, so you’ll always have the controls right where you want them instead of compromising for the game’s defaults or the settings you find most useful in other games. Now with version 3, QJoyPad also supports features like rapid fire and sticky buttons (see Section 3.5.2) that can improve your gaming experience. Not a gamer? Then QJoyPad can still be pretty useful if you would find it more comfortable or convenient to control your computer with a joystick or game pad. It may be designed with gaming in mind, but it’s a useful program for virtually any purpose.

QUESTION
While compiling this file
...ANSWER
Answered 2017-Sep-04 at 00:23Found the issue. I had to specifically include -lX11
, which the .configure
command didn't do, for some reason.
QUESTION
I'm running some processes from Python3 but they are not being terminated. This is a MCVE of the problem, running on Linux 16.04 with Python 3.5. I've tried this with QJoypad and with Sublime3.
...ANSWER
Answered 2017-Oct-09 at 20:43Okay, I found the issue. I had to set shell
to True
and kill the process group. From here.

Install qjoypad
A Linux computer and a Linux-compatible gaming device. A Linux kernel with joystick support (see the [Linux Kernel](https://www.kernel.org/) and the Linux joystick driver documentation [joystick.txt](https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/input/joystick.txt) and [joystick-parport.txt](https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/input/joystick-parport.txt)).

[XWindows](http://x.org/)
[Qt 5](http://qt-project.org/)
[libudev](http://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/libudev/) (optional)
Device directory: By default, QJoyPad will look for joystick devices in /dev/input, but if your system puts them somewhere else, you’ll need to run cmake like this: `cmake .. -DDEVICE_DIR=/dev` Do this if your joystick devices are `/dev/js0`, `/dev/js1` etc.
Install prefix: The default install prefix is /usr. To change this invoke cmake like this: `cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr`
Use Plain Keys: Normally, QJoyPad doesn’t use standard XWindows key names to describe your keyboard, but instead uses names that look nicer and are easier to recognize. For instance, instead of "KP\_Begin", "Prior", and "Shift\_L", QJoyPad uses "KP 5", "PageDown", and "L Shift". If you would rather like the original X11 key names you can invoke cmake like this: `cmake .. -DPLAIN_KEYS=ON`
Disable libudev support: If you don’t have libudev you can disable libudev support like this: `cmake .. -DWITH_LIBUDEV=OFF`
