evhid 0.1.0

Python non-blocking terminal keyboard/mouse event detection for any presented to stdin

evHID

events in python for HID devices (currently only keyboard) that can detect everykey in the terminal: due to the nature of the terminal - while every key is detected not every key is reported to the terminal this means that when the terminal loses focus detection continues untill detectable key is pressed - you can pass callback functions to work globally (so key detection works in the backround aswell) - can be blocking or none blocking, -match on keys by name or value or character ex: if key == 'right' will match the right arrowkey key == '0x20' will match the space key - events reported using signal: instead of using time.sleep(0.01) you can use from signals import pause while True: #code for matching here pause()
