Hello, I am new to c++
I am trying to write a program that reads the keyboard input while running in the background. I am on Linux.
It is not easy for me because every example I find makes use of a library I do not have. When I google the library name and download someone else's it still doesn't work. I get many errors when I try to compile using gcc.
Where do c++ developers obtain their libraries?
Thanks,
Tony

learn to use google. It would seem to me that you may have to write a device driver or program that hooks into the keyboard device driver because normally keyboard input is normally routed to the foreground window.

This seems to be a very non-trivial program for someone who is "new".
Are you sure of your specification?
