Import elksmart-comm for transceiving IR codes The receive functionality in the EXK4S is quite unstable, however useful enough for something that is officially unsupported. The gadgets are picky about cables and/or ports, but it has ridiculous reach when it works. This utility has previously been in the desktop-tools repository.

_usb-drivers_ is a collection of utilities to control various hardware over USB.
Utility overview
----------------
eizoctl
~~~~~~~
_eizoctl_ controls elementary settings of EIZO computer monitors, which do not
support DDC/CI. Say no to oily stains on your monitor's frame!
$ eizoctl --brightness +0.5 --input USB-C

It is intended as a replacement for official EIZO software,
and may not run at the same time, as it would contend for device access.

eizoctltray
~~~~~~~~~~~
_eizoctltray_ is a derived Windows utility that can stay in the systray.
When holding the Shift or Control keys while switching singnal inputs,
it will also suspend or power off the system, respectively.

elksmart-comm
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
_elksmart-comm_ interfaces with ELK Smart infrared dongles EKX4S and EKX5S-T,
partially reimplementing the Ocrustar mobile app. It can both receive and send,
although the older dongle is extremely unreliable at receiving.
To mimic the Nikon ML-L3 infrared wireless remote control:
$ elksmart-comm 80ffffffffffffc71c5f1bda1bffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff3a7bffffffffffff99185f1bda1b03
While it does not build for Windows, this is incidental.

razer-bw-te-ctl
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
_razer-bw-te-ctl_ makes it possible to change the configuration of your Razer
BlackWidow Tournament Edition keybooard (the 2012 model).

Make sure to let the Windows Razer Synapse tool upgrade the firmware to the
newest version before running the program. There might be some issues otherwise
due to protocol changes, although I don't really deem it very probable.

Regular releases are sporadic. git master should be stable enough.

General fixes and cleanup Haste makes waste, and my sleep is all disturbed. Notable fixes: - Windows linking should be completely static, - eizoctltray: input port switching was dysfunctional, - eizoctl*: some failure messages got eaten up.
