🎀 NAME 🎀

mouse_m908 — control Redragon gaming mice

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

mouse_m908 [OPTIONS]... -c FILE
mouse_m908 [OPTIONS]... -m FILE -n NUMBER
mouse_m908 [OPTIONS]... -p NUMBER
mouse_m908 -h

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the vibe: you can change the LED lighting, the button mapping, and the active profile of the Redragon M908 Impact, M709, M711, and M715 gaming mice. iconic lineup honestly.

⚠️ heads up though — support for the M709, M711, and M715 is currently experimental. check README.md for the deets before you come for me. 💀

✨ OPTIONS ✨

• -h, --help — prints a help message. the "hello, what do i do" button. 🫶
• -c, --config=FILE — sends the configuration from the .ini file you point at over to the mouse. main character option fr.
• -m, --macro=FILE — sends the macros from the specified file. ngl, this one requires -n when it's the old macro format. don't forget or it just won't go.
• -n, --number=FILE — picks which macro slot to send to (1-15). requires -m to be there too — they're a package deal, iykyk. 💅
• -p, --profile=NUMBER — sets the currently active profile (1-5). pick your fighter. ⭐
• -b, --bus=NUMBER — the USB bus id. with this option the mouse gets opened by its bus id and device address instead of the VID and PID. requires -d.
• -d, --device=NUMBER — the USB device address. with this option the mouse gets opened by its bus id and device address instead of the VID and PID. requires -b. see how they match? cute. 🎀
• -k, --kernel-driver — does not attempt to detach the kernel drivers. lowkey a lifesaver for compatibility on some systems.
• -v, --version — prints the version. that's it. that's the tweet.
• -R, --read=FILE — reads settings from the mouse and prints the configuration to the specified file. uses stdout when FILE is "-". 🦋
• -D, --dump=FILE — reads settings from the mouse and dumps the raw data to the specified file. uses stdout when FILE is "-". only useful for debugging and development — not your everyday vibe, more of a backstage pass. 🙈
• -M, --model=NAME — specifies the model of the mouse (drop a ? for a list of valid models). without this option the program attempts to detect the mouse you have connected. it's giving "i'll figure it out myself" energy. 👑

🔥 EXAMPLES 🔥

to send the configuration from example.ini:

mouse_m908 -c example.ini

to explicitly state which mouse to open, use the --model option, e.g. for the M709:

mouse_m908 -c example_m709.ini -M 709

to send the macro from example.macro to slot 1:

mouse_m908 -m example.macro -n 1

to send all macros from example.ini:

mouse_m908 -m example.ini

to read and print the current config in .ini format:

mouse_m908 -R -

🍓 FILES 🍓

examples and the configuration file description can be found in /usr/share/doc/mouse_m908, and in /system/documentation/packages/mouse_m908 on Haiku. go read them, they're right there. 📚
