No, it would still be completely new interface that just happened to use input layer as transport. An ordinary program that would just want to react to play. pause, forward, etc buttons would have no idea what to do with the data so you'd still need a very specialized library to deal with the data. -- Dmitry -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-input" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
