I'm looking to generate some key events from Haskell -- wondering if this is working and worth cannibalizing.

Hi! It was working last time I tested it (both for generating key events and reading ones generated by a physical keyboard), but it's in a quite unpolished state and I never got around to cleaning things up for releasing it as a proper library. I don't really have any plans for working further on it, so feel free to plunder it for parts.

Also, you might know this already, but the nice thing about using evdev is that you can generate key events without involving X or Wayland. I think there's also a library that uses the Linux evdev interface directly instead of using FFI to call out to libevdev, but the libevdev maintainers recommend against using evdev directly, since apparently there are a lot of tricky edge cases that you need to take into account.
