======Digispark Keyboard, Mouse, and Joystick Libraries======

Building off of the Arduino port of some of the VUSB code (http://code.google.com/p/vusb-for-arduino/) - I was able to setup a simple, very basic keyboard library for use with the Digispark.

Take a look at the example:  File->Examples->DigisparkKeyboard->Keyboard

It is essential that DigiKeyboard.update() is called at the beginning of the loop to maintain USB communication, otherwise you can use buttons, inputs, etc to trigger the keystrokes. 

For the example: Upload and then place the cursor in a text area, watch it type.

Some ideas:
  - Print out the results of a sensor, say the temperature.
  - Print those results only when a button is pressed.
  - Use it to build an arcade controller.
  - Use it for a password generator.

**UPDATE:** The software package now includes a Joystick and Keyboard library as well, they are similar and each include an easy to learn from example - thanks to duckythescientist on the Digistump forums for this contribution!
