[PD] [hid] 0.5 release

28 Apr 2005

      Here is an alpha test release of the cross-platform, unified [hid]

object. It uses a event type/code naming scheme taken from the Linux

input event system, since it is much cleaner than Microsoft DirectX,

Apple HID Manager, or the USB HID schemes.

In this version, I cleaned up the code a bit and added a number of

new mapping objects. Keyboards are supported under GNU/Linux thanks to

Georg Holzmann.  Standard joysticks and mice are supported almost

exactly the same in GNU/Linux and MacOS X. Tablets are supported in

GNU/Linux, but Wacom wrote a whack driver for MacOS X, so tablets are

not yet supported in MacOS X.
