AutoKey VS pyautogui

I use AutoKey on Linux. It's less powerful than AHK but uses native Python which is nice: https://github.com/autokey/autokey

On Linux, the more direct equivalent to AHK is the similarly named AutoKey. AHK itself is never going to be cross-platform, due to the low-level it interacts specifically with Windows, but AutoKey is the Linux equivalent, designed to interact low-level with Linux in a similar way to AHK on Windows.

You can also try remapping mouse buttons. I use autohotkey to remap the middle clock to the right click. Autohotkey is windows only, but there is autokey which might help if you are a heavy middle click user like me

GitHub - autokey/autokey: AutoKey, a desktop automation utility for Linux and X11.

I then took the replacement I found online, and I replaced the current _pyautogui_win.py.

pydirectinput doesn't work with linux. Instead, I found a replacement for the pyautogui _pyautogui_win.py which can be found in ~/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pyautogui after you install pyautogui (pip install pyautogui) I then took the replacement I found online, and I replaced the current _pyautogui_win.py. This is the script that worked for me. I run Linux Cinnamon 20.1 "Ulyssa" and I am using this on Minecraft with a Razer Deathadder Essential. When I hold Button 9 (the button further away from you) it will have me facing my viewers (f5+f5+f1), and when I let go of button 9, if will put me back to normal view (f5+f1). I hope I helped anyone else with the same problem. Even if you didn't have this problem, I think it is a neat way to use that extra button on your mouse. Thanks for helping u/TSM- and showing me about pydirectinput.
