Gamepad Navigator
[Greasemonky script]
v0.1 | by Mr Speaker | mrspeaker.net | @mrspeaker
Navigate the web with a gamepad! Of course!
*Up/down* to scroll the page
*left/right* to move between links.
*Fire* to visit!
*"Select"* for back, and *"Start"* for forward.
This greasemonkey script currently works only in Firefox with the gamepad API (Chrome version coming soon - it looks like you need to poll the controller instead of responding to events, so I have to write a lil handler for that). The buttons are set up for the NES-style Retrolink controller - so modify the button and axis IDs to match your device.
defaults IDs are:
var axisX = 4,
axisY = 5,
buttonGo = [1, 2],
buttonBack = [8],
buttonForward = [9],
Buttons are all an array - so you can specify multiple buttons to do the same thing. The top-most link in the screen will be highlighted by default as you scroll around.
Lol.
