README
* rumblenotify - vibration alarms for your desktop
** Say what?
You have a cell phone, right? With a vibration feature when new messages arrive? And you have a gamepad with a rumble feature - normally used for playing games? Well, you do the math.
** What does it do?
It implements the Notification Daemon dbus interface, similar to services like [[https://github.com/knopwob/dunst][dunst]]. Programs like thunderbird or IntelliJ idea use this interface to send notifications about new mails, successful compilation and so on. Normally, this is shown as a text somewhere on the top right.
rumblenotify doesn't show anything, it looks for a game pad in =/dev/input/= that can rumble. Currently, it's only tested with the xpad driver (XBox gamepads). And you need evdev in your kernel. Shouldn't be a problem though.
** How to compile
You need
- dbus
- glib
Then just =make= and start via =./rumblenotify=.
** Screenshots
Of what?
** Acknowledgements
I mostly stole the code from dunst and [[https://github.com/flosse/linuxconsole][fftest.c]]. Thanks for the hard work.
