A very simple, generic barcode reader keyboard wedge

Translates input from a serial/USB barcode reader into keyboard data.

Usage: ./breaderd [OPTION] TTY_DEVICE

TTY_DEVICE is the serial device to listen on.

OPTIONS:
  -b, --baud=BAUDRATE      : use BAUDRATE as the baud rate [default: 9600]
  -u, --uinput=UINPUT_DEV  : location of uinput device [default: /dev/input/uinput]
  -n, --no-daemon          : don't fork off as a daemon
  -p, --pid-file=PIDFILE   : when daemonized, create PIDFILE pid file [default: /var/run/breaderd.pid]



Notes:

Make sure uinput is either compiled into your kernel, or loaded as a module:

  $ modprobe uinput
  $ echo "uinput" >> /etc/modules
