Fails to display non-standard buttons

[Martmists-GH]

These include:

• Mouse 7-11
• Scroll up/down
• Mousewheel left/right
• Keyboard extensions (L1-6)
• Peripheral buttons (e.g. Tablet hardware buttons)

Actually the problem is I don't have those keys on my computer, do you mean they are ignored totally? Please provide some screenshots.

As in, I can press the buttons on my keyboard/mouse/etc, I can use them in (some, not all) games, but showmethekey does not display them like it does with other keys.

Please run sudo showmethekey-cli in terminal, and then press all keys you mentioned one by one, and copy the output and paste it here.
