Idea is to show how much input is required in some flows. If you know any other ways of doing it for a screencast, please let me know!

Do you want a live running counter to be displayed, or just have an estimate for yourself? [I could think a couple of easy ways to do it for the latter]

Ideally on screen, nonetheless I'm interested in how to get an estimate!

Brutally, you can do the following from the command line:

python ./Screenkey/inputlistener.py > keylog

to record the keypresses into a files. Then count them:

grep "'pressed': True" keylog | wc -l

Closing this, as it's not something I see directly useful in screenkey itself.
