xwiishow1

Usage

Overview

The xwiishow tool, when called without arguments, shows a short usage information. If the list parameter is given, it lists all connected Wii Remotes. Each connected Wii Remote is given a number. If you pass this number to xwiishow then this device is opened and the UI shows a graphical representation of the device. Instead of passing this number you can also pass an absolute path to the device-root in the sysfs directory.

In the ncurses-based interface you can press 'q' to quit the application, 'r' to toggle the rumble motor and 'a' to toggle the accelerometer. See the xwiishow help text for a more comprehensive list of shortcuts.
