needs packaging

[Autoscience]

Hello,

This little program is great! Within 10 minutes of receiving my Keene FM transmitter I had it up and running under Ubuntu using your code. Thank you very much kenchy!

I think it would be a great little program to add to Debian or Ubuntu so that the command line can be avoided, making it accessible to all users.

How do you feel about having it included in Debian/Ubuntu?

I have no objection. I don't imagine it would be very difficult to package up.
Although I would feel bad about polluting Debian/Ubuntu with my code ;-)

I'll have a go at creating a package when I get the chance, might be at the
weekend (don't let me stop you though). I probably also need to stop it
segfaulting when you run it without an argument! Also probably needs a license.

Paul

Great.

I don't know much about udev but wouldn't it be possible to have udev call your program when the device is plugged in? The frequency could be read from a file, say $HOME/.keene_frequency
Does that sound sensible?

FYI my device has the same usb id as yours. And is reported as a logitech device:
Bus 006 Device 002: ID 046d:0a0e Logitech, Inc.
