 ====== About ====== ====== About ======
  
-WingMan is a program designed to be used when playing multiplayer games on Windows and allows sharing keyboard shortcuts with multiple clients such that each client can share whatever shortcut they want to share and all other clients are allowed to map the remote shortcut to their own keyboard.+WingMan is a solution to better pooling resources when playing games, based upon the hypothesis that various key bindings used to trigger certain powers may be beneficial to the entire squad.

 When clients connect, their names will be synchronized and added in the bindings section. You may add the keybindings you wish to expose to all connecting clients in the bindings section of the program by typing a name and then clicking add to allow WingMan to capture the key combination. Once a key-combination has been captured, it will be exposed in the remote part of the bindings section to all other clients. You may of course select a client from the remote bindings section and then bind their exposed keybinding to your own local keybinding. When clients connect, their names will be synchronized and added in the bindings section.

-====== Usage Cases ====== 
  
-In a game such as Warframe, certain stat pads can be dropped by every player provided that they have them equipped. For instance, dropping an energy pad will allow all players to regenerate their energy provided that they are in range. The same applies to health pads, shield pads and ammo pads. Also, the pads act as a cumulative HOT, providing regeneration over time which increases linearly given the number of pads. +====== Chaining with Other Programs ======
  
-Assigning a shortcut to the action of placing a pad down, the shortcut can be shared amongst all players remotely such that a remote player that is part of the team can remotely make a different player drop a pad.+WingMan is not supposed to be a substitute for macro-creation software but could potentially be used in conjunction with such programs. Since WingMan just allows remote clients to trigger key presses on the local machine, the local machine could just as well set up a macro for a given key combination that could then be triggered remotely via WingMan.
