Awesome project. Can we extend it?

I think this is an awesome bit of code. It's saved me from purchasing another keyboard for my windows Desktop machine, meaning I don't have to get used to 2 different keyboard layouts.

I've tested this on both a Windows desktop machine and my Samsung Galaxy phone, both work flawlessly.

I would like to contribute to the repo. I think the goal would be to minify the setup to a single python file / bash script that can be used to pair and connect and emulate the keyboard. Do you know how to get started with this / limitations?

It's a fantastic project and we need an open source keyboard emulator for linux, I can't find any other decent free software to do this.

Hi BEEFF,

Happy to know it has been helpful to you.

Thoughts on the setup automation. Here is a python binding for bluez, the bluetooth stack behind those tedious bluetoothctl commands. You can take a look at the corresponding APIs in that python lib (or other similar bluez libraries) .

In readme, there is a "Known Issues" section. Any improvements on those issues are also appreciated. I personally think the sudo requirement and the resulting xhost + are annoying. The solution could be the "CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE" capability and run the whole thing without root.

Have fun exploring!
