*xjoy2key 0.1.0*
- http://dokupuppylinux.co.cc/games:utilities:xjoy2key
- html man included (type: man xjoy2key)

xjoy2key maps your joystick button presses to keyboard key presses so you can play games with a joystick even if the game doesn't support one natively.

How does this differ from Rejoystick? (if you know...)

as far I know, it is:

- smaller
- does not need SDL

The link appears to not work, could you upload it somewhere? or possibly here?

I'm having no luck at all with this D:
Can you compile it to a .pet?

Thank you, it installed well.
Although, I'm having trouble getting it working.
I opened the terminal and typed xjoy2key --config /dev/input/js0 while my gamepad was plugged in, and it said "Unable to open joystick '/dev/input/js0' : No such device

Any idea what I could do to get it to work?

Is that the exact message you received in the terminal, including that misspelling? ('inpuy')
