        ========

        

        Take full control of your keyboard with this small Python library. Hook

        global events, register hotkeys, simulate key presses and much more.

        

        -  Global event hook (captures keys regardless of focus).

        -  Simulates key presses.

        -  Complex hotkey support (e.g. ``Ctrl+Shift+A`` followed by

           ``Alt+Space``) with controllable timeout.

        -  Maps keys as they actually are in your layout, with full

           internationalization support ('Ctrl+ç').

        -  Events automatically captured in separate thread, doesn't block main

           program.

        -  Pure Python, no C modules to be compiled.

        -  Zero dependencies. Trivial to install and deploy.

        -  Works with Windows and Linux (if you have a Mac, pull requests are

           welcome).

        -  Python 2 and Python 3.

        -  Tested and documented.

        -  Doesn't break accented dead keys (I'm looking at you, pyHook)

        -  Mouse support coming soon.

        

        Example:

        

        ::

        

            import keyboard

        

            # Press PAGE UP then PAGE DOWN to type "foobar".

            keyboard.add_hotkey('page up, page down', lambda: keyboard.write('foobar'))

        

            # Blocks until you press esc.

            wait('esc')

        

        This program makes no attempt to hide itself, so don't use it for

        keyloggers.
