How to use remote control with bash script .sh?

I want to control the mouse with the keyboard keys.

Are there any methods?

I tried to use such code:

python:


#!/bin/bash



wid=`xdotool search --onlyvisible --name 'chrome'`

if [ "$wid" != "" ]; then

    if  [ 'LEFT_BUTTON' ]; then

        xdotool mousemove_relative 20 0

    fi

fi

but nothing works((((

Here you go, for example:

python:


#!/bin/bash

while true; do



read -s -n 1 action



if  [ "$action" == $'a' ]; then

    xdotool mousemove_relative -- -20 0

elif [ "$action" == $'d' ]; then

    xdotool mousemove_relative 20 0

elif [ "$action" == $'w' ]; then

    xdotool mousemove_relative 0 -20

elif [ "$action" == $'s' ]; then

    xdotool mousemove_relative 0 20

elif [ "$action" == $'r' ]; then

    xdotool click 1

elif [ "$action" == $'x' ]; then

    exit 0

fi



done

The best option for you:

python:


#!/bin/bash



device='/dev/input/by-id/usb-Targus_Laser_Presentation_Remote-if02-event-kbd'



event_blank='*code 48 (KEY_B), value 1*'

event_esc='*code 1 (KEY_ESC), value 1*'

event_f5='*code 63 (KEY_F5), value 1*'

event_prev='*code 104 (KEY_PAGEUP), value 1*'

event_next='*code 109 (KEY_PAGEDOWN), value 1*'



evtest "$device" | while read line; do

case $line in

($event_blank) echo "BLANK SCREEN" ;;

($event_f5) echo "F5" ;;

($event_esc) echo "ESCAPE" ;;

($event_prev) echo "PREVIOUS" ;;

($event_next) echo "NEXT" ;;

esac

Such a big forum, and so little help. Sloths!

@gezosepite - if you continue with these snide little digs in your posts, you will earn yourself a ban.

This is your second warning - three strikes and you're out.

You're always free to visit another forum where people are more up to "your standard".

By the way, I normalized your obnoxious signature. This is not the gezosepite forum.
We prefer to have the main focus on the forum posts, not so much who has the biggest d*** signature around here.
