My new BT mouse came in. Gonna set it up with my Viture Neckband so I don't have to fiddle with the buttons on it when I'm walking around.
Main question is how I'll get keyboard input outside the on screen keyboard.
I kinda want to install custom firmware that would turn the middle button into a morse code device. Wish these companies published their source code!
@freakazoid Maybe! They're just so expensive and I'm not sure that they can output all the key bindings I need for programming. 😿
@mauve You can program it to send whatever you want. Even the mouse buttons can be programmed to send keypresses.
@freakazoid Yeah I have a feeling it'd be hard to find someone in Ottawa with one. In the past I tried getting a Tap Strap 2 to replace my keyboard, but it just couldn't supply me with all the shortcuts I needed for average computer use and shortcuts using SUPER+* were impossible to set on their web UI. 😅 Maybe if I get a major raise or something I'll re-add it to my priority list.
@mauve I had an original Twiddler and a Twiddler 2, but I never used either with Emacs or anything. Nor did I ever end up finishing any of the wearable projects I started.
Their return policy is shit, though, and I think the larger risk is whether you'll even like typing that way. So maybe see if you can find someone who has one you can try out, or at least find it used?
People have written about their experiences in the forums. Here's one with the Twiddler 3: https://forum.tekgear.com/t/twiddler-3-experience-report-after-one-month/1017
