Logitech G15 plugin
Don picked up a couple Logitech G15 keyboards on Friday and handed one to me thinking it would be pretty cool if iNotify could use the display. I thought so too and the result is the G15 Task plugin. In the unlikely event you have one of these keyboards lying about (or if your simply curious), you can install the plugin at:
/Library/Application Support/iNotify/PlugIns
Relaunch iNotify and you’ll be all set. The plugin works about the same as the Screen Message task. Just add whatever you like to the G15 Message field and when triggered, the result will appear on the G15’s display. It also appears on a tiny window that mirrors the G15’s display. You can access this window by clicking on the unlabeled round button in the top right corner of the G15 task. The results look like this
The 5 blacks keys immediately below the display are used for the following functions (from left to right): clear display, scroll to beginning, page up, page down, scroll to end.

cool idea.
I’ve downloaded your software thrice but the keyboard has yet to appear.
…Perhaps if I were on better terms with Don…

The G15 task is in a seperate module and I don’t believe that it was recompiled after the name change to Proxi. I’ll take a look at it tomorrow and provide you with an updated copy.

I did some looking… I already recompiled it, the G15 plugin for Proxi is at:

I recently got a G15 keyboard and download Proxi version 1.3, installed the G15 bundle, and tried to get some text to appear with no luck. I am using ControllerMate to drive the G15. Any tips or info would be most appreciated.

I just got the G15 and can’t get v.1 of the task doesn’t seem to work and the link to the v.2 of it is password protected. Casey pointed to the wiki, but that hasn’t been updated with the new version.
