Asking here for history reasons, instead of asking in reddit or so, I thought why not adding something first here. In case someone comes up with original ideas now or in future.

Typical use cases are for the gaming world, triggering key and mouse events.

Which other tools are interesting to combine with antimicroX? I discovered it just yesterday and it looks very promising. I do not know its full potential yet. From a few youtube videos I could see it is possible you can even trigger holding first key and hitting a second key. So something like: alt + shift + pageup/pagedown should be possible. This key combination can be useful for eagle mode, if you want to fly over your directories slowly and slowly zooming in or zooming out. (eaglemode is a zui application)

I always wanted to control eaglemode with a game controller, thanks to your tool it is possible. Thanks for sharing.

What original ways you know, especially in a non-gaming environment? For making music, blender maybe, or CAD software or anything else? Or even where would it be cool using two game controllers doing even more stuff, as a single user or two users.
