qjoypad
QJoyPad is a command line tool that enables users to map gamepad input to keyboard and mouse events on Linux. It allows gaming enthusiasts to play games that do not natively support gamepads with their preferred input device. QJoyPad interacts with the Linux kernel's input event interface to capture gamepad events. With QJoyPad, users can create customized profiles to map different gamepad buttons and axes to specific keyboard keys, mouse clicks, or mouse movements. These profiles can be saved and loaded for different games or applications. The tool offers advanced features like sensitivity adjustments, deadzone settings, and button combinations to provide a more precise and personalized gaming experience. QJoyPad's command line interface allows for easy configuration and management of the tool, making it a versatile and flexible solution for gamepad support on Linux systems.
