Cool. Do you have plans for Windows and macOS frontends?

Oh, didn't realize that. How does it handle key input in Windows? Text Services Framework or something else?

The initial work was a prototype, we are currently working on the usage of text service for windows, and IBUS for Linux (mainly Wayland environment).

But the next release, will take a time, since we are not familiar with these technologies. https://github.com/pythonbrad/afrim/issues/242

You could update the dependency "enigo" to the current version. I've implemented experimental support for Wayland. It can use Wayland protocols or libei. There will probably be bugs that's why it's hidden behind feature flags.

I'm the maintainer, so if you need anything, please let me know

Thanks, currently I am using Debian (Wayland) and it will be great to test this enigo feature.

I didn't look at the code but the Cargo.toml file says it's using enigo as it's dependency. You can use that to simulate input an Windows, macOS and Linux
