Tourbox is a small usb device by Tourbox Tech Inc. Which lets you assign custom program actions and hotkeys. This Python script translates the serial IO to an evdev/uinput device.
sudo pip install git+https://github.com/bloodywing/tourboxneo
or
sudo pip install tourboxneo
The setup installs a init script in /etc/init.d/
