This project emulates the sound of my old faithful IBM Model-M space saver
bucklespring keyboard while typing on my notebook, mainly for the purpose of
annoying the hell out of my coworkers.
Bucklespring runs as a background process and plays back the sound of each key
pressed and released on your keyboard, just as if you were using an IBM
Model-M. The sound of each key has carefully been sampled, and is played back
while simulating the proper distance and direction for a realistic 3D sound
palette of pure nostalgic bliss.
