LCDproc also supports key or remote control input for controlling the clients.

If you get the urge to help out by writing code, take a look at the TODO
file to see what we think that needs to be done. If you want to work on
something, or you want to add something different, tell it on the
mailing list. Maybe someone is already working on the part, and maybe someone
has already writen something that you can use. New ideas are always welcome !
To add new drivers, read server/drivers/drv_base.h for instructions.
Also you should spend some time reading the files in the docs/ directory.
To learn more about how LCDproc works, first have a look at the docs/
directory. Some important things are documented there, but because this is
still somewhat a big hacking project, some documentation will be missing ;)
