EvRouter reads events from the Linux input layer,
and acts on them according to a user-specified set
of rules. Currently, EvRouter can map events to
X11 key and button presses, XMMS commands, and it
can also run shell commands. EvRouter is intended
to help legacy applications understand modern
events such as mouse wheel movement and special
keys on keyboards. It also offers hotkey-like
functions, and can help existing modern
applications deal with events that, for one reason
or another, X11 is unaware of (as long as they are
accessible through a Linux event device).
