How to stop a while loop by inputting a keypress
1 project | /r/learnpython | 23 May 2022

I'm trying to create an autoclicker using the pyautogui library. I want to create a fail safe for the user to break out of the auto clicker in case the cursor is not able to be moved and the user can't stop the program. I'm using the keyboard library to implement a hotkey to stop the auto clicker from running, but I'm not getting the intended behavior. The click() function is only executed once and the program quits. I'm on a Arch Linux, and gave the program root privileges as mentioned in the readme of keyboard

If you needed a cross-platform solution today, I would recommend looking into Python and some of its related ecosystem, such as the keyboard package, which provides cross-platform hotkey support and keyboard automation, including 'word listeners' and its companion module mouse.
