Besides being a little more simple to use than the earlier IOKit HID API, and less likely to be deprecated, it also has the added benefit of working with the Sony DualShock 4 controller in Bluetooth mode out of the box, whereas the previous API has a bug that makes it report bad data for the controller. Cleaned up several other things in this code, having gone over every line of it. The remaining deprecated calls are also gone.
Simple DirectMedia Layer
(SDL)
Version 2.0

http://www.libsdl.org/
Simple DirectMedia Layer is a cross-platform development library designed
to provide low level access to audio, keyboard, mouse, joystick, and graphics
hardware via OpenGL and Direct3D. It is used by video playback software,
emulators, and popular games including Valve's award winning catalog
and many Humble Bundle games.
SDL officially supports Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, iOS, and Android.
Support for other platforms may be found in the source code.
SDL is written in C, works natively with C++, and there are bindings
available for several other languages, including C# and Python.
This library is distributed under the zlib license, which can be found
in the file "COPYING.txt".
The best way to learn how to use SDL is to check out the header files in
the "include" subdirectory and the programs in the "test" subdirectory.
The header files and test programs are well commented and always up to date.
