DarwiinRemote - AWiimote Frontend for OSX

jeckil writes "DarwiinRemote is a tiny piece of software which reads data from and sends data to Nintendo Wii Remote. It detects all 3 axis sensors, all buttons (except power). You can modify which controller LED indicator is on, and send force feedback. Right now it only supports a basic front row control scheme but they should be releasing a better version in a few days. All the source code is available and compatible with latest version of xcode. One can only wonder ... If the latest apple rumor turns out to be true, things could get very interesting for apple. Someone has already released a modified version of this app. It seems there have been some problems detecting the remote so an alternate version that uses the Wiimote's sync button has been released."

    Because most of the /. editors became Apple fanbois back when the TiBook was released. They mouth the Open Source slogans once in awhile because that is what a lot of the readers expect but Taco & Co. long since went to the dark side.
