Smart Keyboard which intercepts your keystrokes and will help you type less, faster, and adds foresight.
| Feature Name | Description | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Intercept | Intercept the input events and print them | ✅ |
| Redirect | Read the input events from stdin, and write them to the event files | ❌ |
| Device Info | List kernel event devices (like evtest) | ❌ |
| String Matching | Figure out what the using is typing/editing right now | ❌ |
| Regular Expression | Use RegExp to find and replace selected/typing strings | ❌ |
| Auto-complete | Auto complete the user input | ❌ |
| Auto-correct | Auto correct | ❌ |
| Number Scroll | Shortcut + Scroll-wheel to update the number/date/color/... | ❌ |
| Shell cmds | Run shell commands | ❌ |
| Software Detection | Detect which app the user's in, so we can use custom commands | ❌ |
| Clang Tools | Use clang tools to rename variables, show assembly, ... | ❌ |
| Config File | Custom config file to customize by the user | ❌ |
| GUI | Graphical User Interface for ease of use | ❌ |
Usage: foresight [options] [action]

$ cat x2y.c # you can do it with any programming language you like
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <linux/input.h>
int main(void) {
setbuf(stdin, NULL); // disable stdin buffer
setbuf(stdout, NULL); // disable stdout buffer
struct input_event event;
// read from the input
while (fread(&event, sizeof(event), 1, stdin) == 1) {
// modify the input however you like
// here, we change "x" to "y"
if (event.type == EV_KEY && event.code == KEY_X)
event.code = KEY_Y;
// write it to stdout
fwrite(&event, sizeof(event), 1, stdout);
