awesome-teensy-button

Source code for the Staples' "Easy Button" hack (runs on Teensy 2.0 board).

Inspiration: http://blog.makezine.com/2011/04/08/the-awesome-button/

Based on sample code from http://pjrc.com/teensy/usb_keyboard.html


What does this do?

Board poses as a USB keyboard. You need to hook up the Easy Button's button between pin B4 and GND.

Whenever button is pressed and then released less than 2 seconds later, board sends CTRL+OPT+CMD+numpad1 key press. Whenever button is pressed and held for longer than 2 seconds, board sends CTRL+OPT+CMD+numpad0 key press (without waiting for button to be released).

What can you do with this?

Use KeyboardMaestro or any other keyboard macro app to do something whenever the button is pressed for short or long periods of time.

How do you build this?

Follow instructions at http://pjrc.com/teensy/first_use.html to get your environment setup, then run 'make'.
