Bug#709988: ITP: python-evdev -- python bindings for the generic input event interface



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Łukasz 'sil2100' Zemczak <lukasz.zemczak@canonical.com>

Package name: python-evdev
Upstream author: Georgi Valkov
License: New BSD License
URL: http://gvalkov.github.io/python-evdev/
Description:

evdev 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/.

evdev also comes with bindings to uinput, the userspace input subsystem.
Uinput allows userspace programs to create and handle input devices from
which they can inject events directly into the input subsystem.
