Keywords: keystroke, keynote, keycode,... Message-ID: <2181@ssc-vax.UUCP> Date: 24 Aug 88 21:25:32 GMT Organization: Boeing Aerospace Corp., Seattle WA Lines: 14 I've got a question to which I'm hoping that there is a pretty simple answer. I need to write a program which will sit in the background and watch the keyboard and mouse for input. Of course, I don't want to "disturb" the input, just "sit" in the food chain and observe. Do I need to write a daemon? Help. I have to get this done three weeks ago. Thanks ;-) -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ David Geary, Boeing Aerospace, ~ ~ Seattle - "THE DRIZZLE CAPITAL OF THE WORLD" ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
