Wrapper for TourBox (NEO) from Serial to uinput

What the hell is this?

Tourbox is a small usb device by Tourbox Tech Inc. Which lets you assign custom program actions and hotkeys. This Python script translates the serial IO to an evdev/uinput device.

Install

sudo pip install git+https://github.com/bloodywing/tourboxneo

or

sudo pip install tourboxneo

it needs to install a udev rule.

Last words

This was hacked together in one day, the wrapper is far from perfect. But at least it makes it possible to use that expensive device with Linux
