All the above things can also be done through the "lower-level API"::
85+
86+
import uinput
87+
88+
device = uinput.Device()
89+
90+
device.add_capability(uinput.EV_KEY, uinput.KEY_A)

device.add_capability(uinput.EV_KEY, uinput.KEY_B)
92+
93+
device.send(uinput.EV_KEY, uinput.KEY_A, 1) # press
94+
device.send(uinput.EV_KEY, uinput.KEY_A, 0) # release
95+
device.send(uinput.EV_KEY, uinput.KEY_B, 1) # press
96+
device.send(uinput.EV_KEY, uinput.KEY_B, 0) # release
97+
device.send(uinput.EV_KEY, uinput.KEY_B, 1) # press
98+
device.send(uinput.EV_KEY, uinput.KEY_B, 0) # release
99+
device.send(uinput.EV_KEY, uinput.KEY_A, 1) # press
100+
device.send(uinput.EV_KEY, uinput.KEY_A, 0) # release

In other words, uinput.Capabilities descendants provide just higher level API
103+
for the uinput.Device.
