Feature request: analogue stick text input #106

I use my DS4 as a remote control for my pc sometimes but whenever i need to type something (which happens a lot on a computer designed for keyboard and mouse input) i need to go over to the keyboard to get anywhere. I have seen solutions for this on console games that give you the ability to write efficiently by moving the two analogue sticks in different ways, aka Twostick, Quikwrite and by other weird names that most people haven't heard of. I think the ability to pull up a keyboard interface of sorts by pushing a button of choice would be a gamechanger and huge differentiator for the software that incorporates it, and I know that i would stop swapping back and forth if you implemented something like this.

Controller Companion works well with DS4Windows and has a built in keyboard interface that works well. I've been using it for a while, definitley worth the £1.99. I originally used it with an xbox 360 controller but it works just as well with the DS4.
