Writing my own typing monitor program for RSI sufferers...

[Sam's Lists]

Skip...

So, so close....  The problem with this implementation is that it doesn't
monitor usb keyboards under linux at all as far as I can tell....since no
keyboard entry will show up in /proc/interrupts with a usb keyboard.  I
absolutely need the keyboard monitoring as well.

Otherwise, your project would be the perfect starting point for me!

Anyone else have an idea as to what I can use with Python to know when the
keyboard is being used even when I don't have focus?

Thanks
Sam
