I am a proficient Python coder whose learning has plateaued. Any really useful libraries I should look into learning? Taking recommendations.
And here are some libraries that might pique your interest although they don't strictly answer your question: - tqdm for adding a progress bar on for loops (it comes with useful information like iteration per second and estimated time needed to finish) - alive_progress adds a progress bar like tqdm, but it works even with generators and while loops which I don't think tqdm does. -timebudget, with just a decorator as soon as a function is completed it prints the time taken to execute it - send2trash for sending files to the trash bin instead of permanently deleting them - keyboard for sending keyboard inputs or check if a key is pressed - mouse same as keyboard but with mouse buttons - textract for extracting text from many types of file with a single interface. It supports documents, powerpoint presentations, csv, excels, images, gifs, audio, and many more

How to stop a while loop by inputting a keypress
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

Cross-platform hotkeys and hotstrings?
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.
