This utility is written mainly for Flight Simluator (with extra
feature for FSX Deluxe version), but can be also usefull if you want
to activate keyboard macros from special keyboard(s). With latest
version mouse & game devices support was added (see below).

Key features

  * manage multiple keyboards/mouses connected to one PC
  * different key on different keyboard has assigned it's own command
  * mouse buttons on different mouses can be also used as macro
    trigeer - including mouse wheel
  * also game devices can trigger macros. Not only buttons, but also
    axis.
  * when a key activates macro, it's own beahvior (e.g. sending
    letter code to windows) is deactivated
  * macro can send another keyboard keys, launch application, send
    commands to Flight simulators (FS9, FSX, XPL) or activate script
  * when no macro is assigned, keyboard/mouse works as usual

FS usage example - the cheapest home cockpit

Connect any old keyboard and just stick paper labels with FS buttons.
Then you define macro commands just for this keyboard. It means e.g.
"A" on this old keyboard can turn autopilot on/off, but "A" on your
regular keyboard will work just as before. The command can be either
keyboard shorcut sent to FS window or SimConnect event (see FSX SDK
for available events and their description).
