To create and use an uinput driver::
33+
Create and use a new uinput device with key-capabilities::
34+
35+
import uinput
36+
37+
device = uinput.Device()
38+
39+
keys = uinput.KeyCapabilities(device)
40+
keys.add(uinput.KEY_A)
41+
keys.add(uinput.KEY_B)
42+
43+
keys.click(uinput.KEY_A)
44+
keys.click(uinput.KEY_B)
45+
keys.click(uinput.KEY_B)
46+
keys.press(uinput.KEY_A)
47+
keys.release(uinput.KEY_A)
48+
49+
Use built-in mouse-device::
50+
51+
import uinput.devices
52+
53+
mouse = uinput.devices.Mouse()
54+
55+
mouse.move(100, 100)
56+
57+
Use built-in keyboard-device::
58+
59+
import uinput.devices
60+
61+
keyboard = uinput.devices.Keyboard()
62+
63+
keyboard.click(uinput.KEY_H)
64+
keyboard.click(uinput.KEY_E)
65+
keyboard.click(uinput.KEY_L)
66+
keyboard.click(uinput.KEY_L)
67+
keyboard.click(uinput.KEY_O)
68+
