Support for other devices could be added in the future, but the K750 keyboard is
the only device I have and can test on.
Pairing and un-pairing of devices is planned, but not implemented at this time.
Requirements
------------
- Python (2.7 or 3.2).
- Python (2.7 or 3.2). Either version should work well.
- Gtk 3; Gtk 2 should partially work with some problems.
- Python GI (GObject Introspection), for Gtk bindings.
- pyudev for enumerating udev devices.
- Optional libnotify GI bindings, for desktop notifications.
The necessary packages for Debian/Ubuntu are `python-pyudev`/`python3-pyudev`,
`python-gi`/`python3-gi`, `gir1.2-gtk-3.0`, and optionally `gir1.2-notify-0.7`.
Installation

@ -33,13 +34,17 @@ In rules.d/ you'll find a udev rule file, to be copied in /etc/udev/rules.d/ (as
root).
In its current form it makes the UR device available for r/w by all users
belonging to the 'plugdev' system group (standard Debian group for pluggable
devices). It may need changes, specific to your particular system's
belonging to the 'plugdev' system group (standard Debian/Ubuntu group for
pluggable devices). It may need changes, specific to your particular system's
configuration.
If in doubt, replacing GROUP="plugdev" with GROUP="<your username>" should just
work.
After you copy the file to /etc/udev/rules.d (and possibly modify it for your
system), run 'udevadm control --reload-rules' as root for it to apply. Then
physically remove the Unifying Receiver, wait 30 seconds and re-insert it.

"""Generic Human Interface Device API.
It is currently a partial pure-Python implementation of the native HID API
implemented by signal11 (https://github.com/signal11/hidapi), and requires
``pyudev``.
The docstrings are mostly copied from the hidapi API header, with changes where
necessary.
