| get keyboard and mouse events I would like to catch all mouse and keyboard events system wide like it can be done with winapi "mouseProc". I'm searching for a resolution for almost 3 days now but i can't find anything usable. There must be a soltution that is for example used by xeyes. I hope you can help me, thanks in advance ![]() rat |

| Grab the source code for xeyes perhaps? |

| I thought the same but i couldn't find it even it must be open source. It's part of the X11 source package that means implementation must be something like this: Code: #include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h> /* for sleep() */
#include <X11/Xlib.h>
#include <X11/Xutil.h>
#define WIN_TITLE "Test-Programm"
#define WIN_NAME "TEST"
#define WIN_CLASS "test"
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
Display *dpy;
Window win;
XClassHint class_hint;
if ((dpy = XOpenDisplay(NULL)) == NULL)
{
printf("Unable to open display\n");
return 1;
}
win = XCreateSimpleWindow(dpy, DefaultRootWindow(dpy), 0, 0, \
400, 300, BlackPixel(dpy, DefaultScreen(dpy)), 0, \
WhitePixel(dpy, DefaultScreen(dpy)));
XStoreName(dpy, win, WIN_TITLE);
class_hint.res_name = WIN_NAME;
class_hint.res_class = WIN_CLASS;
XSetClassHint(dpy, win, &class_hint);
XMapWindow(dpy, win);
XFlush(dpy);
XEvent event;
int done=0;
while (!done)
{
while(XPending(dpy) > 0)
{
XNextEvent(dpy, &event);
switch(event.type)
{
case KeyPress:
printf("Key was pressed");
break;
default:
break;
}
}
XSelectInput(dpy, win, KeyPressMask);
}
return 0;
}

| just found the xeyes sources in Xorg apps dir. xeyes is not exactly what i need. It is able to follow the mouse moves even if there're outside the application window but it can't detect clicks outside of it's window because it needs focus for that. has anybody further ideas?

| I've little background in linux programming. but according to the "everything is a file" paradigm, I would suggest to just open and read the correct device file under dev. Unfortunately I don't know about the proper way to identify the correct file. By try and error I found my keyboard is represented by /dev/input/event0. Another thing is that you'll probably need root access

| I had a look at several linux keylogging tool and how they do it. Mostly by reading the device and translating the raw information. but that's not perfect for my aims because you need root access for reading a device. is there any other way not from the device better from the xserver or gnome/kde/xfce? |

| do you know the x11 program xev (x-event)? i'm not quite shure if it's this what you want. but because it's so small (only source file is xev.c), here is the code: Code: /* $XConsortium: xev.c,v 1.15 94/04/17 20:45:20 keith Exp $ */

| better try the app first yourself, before diving into the code. as I said, I'm not really shure if xev meets your requirements. xev should be part of any x11 distribution, just try to run it from xterm

| doesn't solve my problem. the app has a window frame in which events are captured but not outside of that. I need xserver events and not those of that frame. thanks anyway |
