sometimes "captures" too much #204

This library was used in order to sense mouse/keyboard activity at one of my customers.

Their issue was when they used a barcode scanner in an electron app, it would truncate the first half of the barcode string (in HID mode, so it was acting as a keyboard wedge).

As soon as the library was removed, this issue was no longer existent

Not sure if this is an issue still but if so then really can't repro or fix, simply because no barcode scanner and it's a niche use case. Feel free to open and PR if this is an issue for you.
