How to use it

from keybhook import start_hook, config, VK_CODELETTER
VK_CODELETTER[193] = ('?', False) # adds not mapped chars (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/inputdev/virtual-key-codes), on my keyboard "?" has the code 193 -  
it might be different on yours. (2nd value: True if numpad else False)
config.done = False 
start_hook()
# example
oldlen = 0
co = 0
while True:
    newlen = len(config.results)
    if newlen > oldlen:
        print(config.results[-1]) # prints the last captured letter 
        co += 1

    oldlen = newlen
    if co == 20: 
        config.done # break when we have 20 characters 
        break
