Numerous companies make footswitches that can be attached to a usb port on your computer. The footswitch can then be programmed to simulate a mouse button press. Alternately the footswitch can be programmed to simulate a series of key presses on your computer keyboard.

You have ability to condigure the pedal's operation by running a software program (included with the footswitch). Typically, the included software program is written to run only under the Windows operating system. So, if you run Linux, you still need to be able to boot up Windows in order to program your footswitch with the included software.

The Usb Footswitch Programmer is a Linux program that you can instead use to program your footswitch on Linux. You do not need Windows in order to do so.

This program presents a graphical window to configure the USB foot switch/pedal. It supports 1 to 3 pedal units made by PCsensor, Scythe, Stritch, PcSensor, Delcom, and other models using the same USB chips.
