AutoClicker for Keyboard and Mouse

This application simulates repeated key presses and mouse clicks at a specified interval. You can configure which keys or mouse buttons to simulate and use a global hotkey to toggle the simulation on or off.

Features

• Configurable Key Behavior:
  • Hold: Simulate keys being pressed continuously.
  • Click: Simulate keys being pressed and released repeatedly at a set interval.
• Global Hotkeys:
  • Assign a hotkey to toggle the simulation on or off (default: F8).

Compatibility

• Platforms: Made for Linux, but there is a slight chance it might work on macOS (although unsupported) due to its evdev support.
• Desktop Environments: Tested on KDE Plasma 6.2.4 and COSMIC Desktop Alpha 4.

Known Issues

• Global hotkeys do not work with pure Wayland applications on the COSMIC Desktop, but they work fine with Xwayland applications (e.g., Steam and games running through Proton).
• The application starts with a phantom winit window. This is a minor issue that may be addressed in the future.
