• I've been looking for awhile for a way to map Wiimote buttons to modifier keys (ctrl, shift, alt, etc), and finally stumbled on it. xmodmap, the same utility that maps key codes to key symbols can also map key symbols to modifiers. Details are now in wminput/README. I'll elaborate on the whole key mapping process in the wiki in the near future.
