Description
Yup! I did it again! I managed to totally screw my NANY release and am putting up a different app.
This is a small autohotkey app that lets you map your typical 10-button joypad (think dualshock clone) to keyboard keys.
Nothing too fancy, but if you open the thing up you'll see it's pretty easy to solder buttons.
I used to use this when doing kiosks (is far easier than mapping a keyboard).

Features
Maps joystick buttons to keyboard presses.

Planned Features
A GUI, a non-fixed number of buttons.

Screenshots
No UI, so no screenies :(

Usage
Installation
Edit the ini in your favourite text editor, run the exe.

Using the Application
Press buttons on your joystick, see the magic happen

Uninstallation
Format your hard drive, or delete the exe and ini files.

Known Issues
A maximum of 10 buttons are supported.
