Tool for controlling color of A4Tech Bloody keyboard
Rewritten apo5tol project to use HID-BPF for better user experience
Why not original project
Original apo5tol's bloody_keyboard_rgb_control project use libusb library for communication with device.
This library must detach HID driver from device and only then device will be available to communication.
While HID driver is detached from device any keys pressed at this time will be missed.
Duration of original script more than 1 second - that is a lot.
Current project use HID-BPF what provides communication with device without detaching HID driver from device.
Any pressed keys while program is running will be correctly processed by HID driver.
Duration of my program is ~30ms (color command) whats take possibilities to make animations by user scripts (per key colors is not supported at now).
