- msg (msg-programs)
- A program to execute keyboard shortcuts with a touch screen.
- Useful when you only have a touchscreen available, like when using a convertible laptop to draw.
- Java >=8
- Tested with Java 8 as shipped with the current Minecraft Launcher and JDK 13.
- Running the program will generate a default settings.ini if it doesn't exist already.
- Program will then prompt you to take a look at the se-ttings and then close itself.
- Adjust the shortcuts in the settings file. Keep to the formatting present, more info in the file.
- To do a shortcut, tap a quatercircle ("tap") or draw a L-shape ("gesture", self explaining when you look into the settings)
- To close the program, draw circles around the middle.
- settings.ini, containing the settings in the same directory as the java runtime.
- It doesn't need to be an exact L-shape, and it doesn't have to be in the center. Be warned that a drawing too sloppy may cause the wrong shortcut to be executed.
- You can set a "toggle" command on a gesture, but this won't show an indicator if the key is held or not. You can set a "press" command on a tap, but this won't show the rim.
- Close the program using the method mentioned above, else keys toggled on may continue to be pressed for some time without you being able to do anything about it.
- Program may be very small when using Java 8. To fix, right-click the java.exe and set the high-DPI scaling setting under "Compaibility" to "System".
