I didn't try it, but it looks like you can select a joint with halui.joint.selected and then jog it with halui.jog.selected.plus and minus. The speed is set with halui.jog-speed. If I was making a pendant I'd sure want a jogwheel instead of plus/minus buttons. It takes the same number of inputs and works much (much!) better. I have a real jogwheel but one of these days I'm going to try one of the little toy knob encoders from mouser etc - they're meant to be volume controls or something, but they might still be more useful for jogging than two buttons.
