log all key presses in python

To log all key presses in Python, you can use the pynput library, which provides a cross-platform way of listening for keyboard events. Here is an example of how you could use this library to log all key presses:

main.py
from pynput import keyboard

log_file = "key_log.txt"

def on_press(key):
    try:
        with open(log_file, "a") as f:
            f.write(str(key))
    except:
        pass

with keyboard.Listener(on_press=on_press) as listener:
    listener.join()
253 chars
14 lines

This code sets up a listener for keyboard events and writes each key press to a log file. The on_press function is called each time a key is pressed, and it writes the key to the log file using the write method. In this example, we've wrapped the write method in a try/except block to catch any errors that may occur while writing to the log file.

To run this code, save it to a .py file and run it from the command line. The program will run in the background and log all key presses to the key_log.txt file.
