快捷方式脚本中的 EOFError：（原始）Python 中的键盘输入

Question

My first Python script should be a Keyboard-Shortcut-Quiz:

As a lot of Keyboard Shortcuts only work in combination with CTRL, SHIFT or WIN/OS Key the most "answers" of the quiz will contain on of those "system-keys".

Unfortunately this System Keys are leading to "EOFError: EOF when reading a line".

answer = str(input("How do you switch to the Desktop?"))

if answer in ['^D']:
    print("Right!")

I tested it with ['D'] instead of ['^D'] and the script worked fine. Its clear that the ^ which stands for CTRL is the reason for the error.

Now I am asking myself on how to read RAW keyboard shortcuts combinations properly in python. (I know that raw_input is just input now with Python 3.)

PS: I didnt came across a solution on how to read the input of the WIN Key properly, is this even possible?

Answer 1

Using the method you're using, you can't take the input of ctrl and parse it to be readable by python unless you use AHK( AutoHotKey ). I highly recommend you try it out, it takes inputs such as 'ctrl' and you can 'mash it together' the way you need to use it. I'm sorry I couldn't offer much more than this, but it seems like the most viable alternative!
