I was kind of hoping to find a simple and existing solution for globally sending hid inputs to the current Pd-patch / subpatch / window inside of Pd.
Since I need this only for speeding up programming I found an external solution "btnx" to reprogram the mouse buttons for sending key commands. That does the trick for me.
xbindkeys is a quite useful general tool for this kind of thing, mapping key or mouse combinations to commands, also if you want there is a scheme option for more intricate mappings of sequences etc. nice for configuring keystroke and mouse button independently of all the annoying desktop gui stuff.
