Unfortunately, I left the Stop Button at the school which is closed for the next week.

Is there an alternative? I have the ability to create a USB HID device that can return an arbitrary vendor and product id. Is there a solution along this approach? Is there a way I can map a joystick button to be the stop button?

Thanks!
They are correct, you can just bypass the stop button.
Regardless, I'll provide more info on what the stop button is:
It's not a joystick; it's a one-button USB keyboard. It presses the key command SHIFT-CTL-RETURN.
