This is awesome, but I would like fully customized keyboard remapping if possible, similar to "Game Keyboard" on market. :X
Wait...how do you mean to use space for 2 keys?

Ok here it is
usage:
Flash zip on cwm, reboot
Open terminal and write:
Code:
su
sh /system/gamepad
In 5 secs phone will reboot... enjoy!.
Do the same process for restore back your keyboard
EDIT: If you want, on terminal emulator, go to preferences -> initial command, and write the same (press enter or will not work), and each time you open terminal emulator, you will change your keyboard settings

I would suggest to set Camera and Vol+ as L and R Trigger.
You could make left and right arrow as Vol+ and Vol- for the Script.

i can but this some stupid DDD

Paul, have you seen on market app called GameKeyboard (paid)? Any opinions about it, or ideas for this mod?

---

its difficult to hold r and l buttons while pressing on direct and another buttons. so i think we need option to sticky r and l keys and some way to press combo keys. so that will sound better.
