Description-en: Python 3 bindings for the Linux input subsystem
This package provides bindings to the generic input event interface
in Linux. The evdev interface serves the purpose of passing events
generated in the kernel directly to userspace through character
devices that are typically located in /dev/input/.
.
This package also comes with bindings to uinput, the userspace input
subsystem. Uinput allows userspace programs to create and handle
input devices that can inject events directly into the input
subsystem.
.
This package installs the library for Python 3.
