Edwin Groothuis f2873e98ea New Port: emulators/xjoypad
xjoypad allows an USB joypad (probably a USB Joystick, too)
	to be used with games on linux (probably other unix-like
	operating systems too).  This is done by mapping the joypad
	events to X keyboard events which are sent to the window
	currently having the focus. Therefore only keyboard-controlled
	games are currently supported by xjoypad. xjoypad was written
	to add joypad support to the playstation emulator epsxe.

===============================================================================
To activate the default joystick to key mapping, run the command
xjoypad -device /dev/input/js[device-id] &
where [device-id] depends on whether you are using using a standard game pad or
a usb game pad (it's probably going to be /dev/input/js0)
note that the -device switch is incorrectly stated as -devicefilename
in the documentation
