Comment 3 for bug 1071836

If this key-click issue is still unresoved, it is one that I have had for years. A python programmer from Canada finally wrote me one that is a bit buggy, but is _does_ make all of my keyboard keys click. The problem is that the program is very slow. It works well on my 2-CPU and 4-CPU desktops, but is barely works on my EEE-900A. I am trying to learn puthon so that I can port the click.py program to click.c.

there are multiple points to this posting.

I am entirely open to share this slow click program. Write me if you want to test this out as-is.

Are there any python and C gurus out there who care to take on this project ... witth my help, of course?

When this python-click script works in C, it can then easily be dropped into the xset utility.

--note that "click.py" is a misnomer since the guy who wrote it modifyed it from a game he wrote for his son. How much is dead-wood is unknown.
