There are some tools that allow you to use hotkeys for mouse-movement, these can be used with Flirc!

I tried the following tools:

https://github.com/rvaiya/warpd

https://github.com/EsportToys/TPMouse

warpd on Windows misses some features (commandline parameters do not work, so you cannot reassign the hotkeys), but other than that it works perfectly. Grid mode is very useful in the case where the remote does not send repeat keys fast enough. I've repurposed an MCE remote and use the cursor keys for mouse movement and the numpad for the grid movement: one key on the remote to enable/disable warpd, one key to enable/disable grid mode; the keys 1379 are used to select the quadrants; 24568 are used to directly move to a side or center, cursor for mouse movement, ok for click, channel up/down for scroll and some other buttons for other types of clicks.

The functionality with TPMouse is similar, but I preferred the mouse speed of warpd (TPMouse has a slow down button, but you need to reassign it as the default is a key that cannot be combined in Flirc.

Hope this helps someone!

Great insight! Warpd’s grid mode paired with Flirc and an MCE remote sounds like a powerful setup. Thanks for sharing the key layout—super helpful for anyone customizing remote-based mouse control!
