Multiboxing on Linux
Hello,
From looking through the forums I've gathered there a few multiboxers here running on Linux. So I'm hoping you'd be able to provide some information.
I'm just trying to just get a basic key broadcast setup but it's proving rather difficult.
I firstly though I'd use the xdotool to broadcast to all windows as it seemed to have the function to send keys to inactive windows. So I built my only application in Python to detect key presses and then launch a sub process for xdotool. However it seems I'm not able to get xdotool to send to any inactive window. It will send keys using xdotool key 1 but when the --window $name is added then nothing is sent. It is noted on the docs that this can occur and is just a limitation of the API. So I've been unable to find a solution around this. Nor can I see a python lib that has this feature.
I've also tried programs through WINE such as
AHK - Same issue, will not broadcast to background windows
HKN - Seems to run but I cannot get any key broadcast
ISboxer - Gives me a Direct3D error on launching Inner Space. Tried installing DX9 and .net 3.5 but still the same. Tried with DX 11 and DXVK but still the same message. With Dot Net 2.0 installed the ISBoxer toolkit works and will export to inner space find. However when launching the clients they show a black screen and then close after a second. Maybe related to the above, running wow without Inner space in the same prefix works fine.
Any information on your linux setup's would be great. Thank you. I have checked Xlax but it seems to be for xterm windows and cannot find much good documentation for it.
