Re: Userland event injector

[Ralf A. <ra...@sh...>]

I did something similar at
http://www.iptel-now.de/HOWTO/INPUT_DECOMPOSED/input_decomposed.html
It's using a new device though (the same way Alessandro Rubini did in his
example and the other email this week did. BTW - i was unsure whether
this approach can handle bytes arriving "byte by byte" and not "on
block", so i used another "re-assembling" algorithm, the (hardware)
devices that i use to inject the events do send interleaved anyway).

I like the idea of just "inputattaching" to a pty much more too though !
So looking forward to having a look at your code.
