Yes, but what I had in mind was more of an HID device to emulate
(possibly programmable) sequences of keys. But I suppose a serial
adapter would be a good bit simpler, and could probably be made to
work with Xinput.

The 6094 LPFK has been discussed on this list before
(see thread
"IBM
6094-020 Lighted Program Function Keys").
I notice that there's a bulk lot of 19 of them on ePay (see
180215874744) - now, I don't want 19, but I'd like one. I'm sure
there
are others on this list who would as well.
Who else is game? This seller will only ship to the US, so someone
within the US (I'm not) would need to receive them and reship - I'll
happily pay a few $ on top of the onward postage for the trouble.
I'm
definitely game...if someone arranges a bulk purchase (I

might be nice to build a USB interface for these.
