#Hooked: a pure Python hotkey module ####About - Hooked is a pure python keyboard hotkey that allows the creation of hotkeys in all Python implementations that support ctypes. Instead of messing around with low level windows calls, just tell Hooked what your hotkey is and what function you want to call.

Hooked supports IronPython (2.7), PyPy (newest repo version) and CPython (Tested:2.7,3.4 Most are likely to work) currently. It is pure Python, so porting should be very simple (see The Future below).

####Usage - It is really easy, just:

from hooked import hook
def foo():
    print "foo"
hk=hook() #make a new instance of hooked
hk.Hotkey(["LCtrl","A"],foo) #add a new shortcut ctrl+a, that calls foo() when pressed
hk.listen() #start listening for key presses

Read more in the wiki! ####Alternatives - pyHook and pyhk inspired the creation of this project. They are great hotkey modules too! ####Extra - There is an example in the hooked.py file. You can run python hooked.py and it will start two hotkeys. ####License - Hooked Copyright (C) 2015 Ethan Smith This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions; Hooked is licensed under the GPL v2, or at your choice, any later version. This program comes with the gpl in a .txt file.

#####New: You can use it under the LGPL too. The license choice is entirely up to you.

####Alternative licensing - If you want to use this in a commercial product, or not under the GPL, contact me and I will consider allowing licensing under a different license.

####The Future - Here are a few things that I will be adding (subject to change without notice):

• add support for args for called functions
• get mouse inputs
• Jython support
• Threads?
• ????
