如何在python3中制作一个可以记录链接（组合）按键的键盘记录器，例如ctrl + x，shift + f10，c + h

Question

How to make a keylogger which can log chained(combined) key presses like ctrl+x,shift + f10, c+h in python 3.I have a basic key logger using pynput

from pynput.keyboard import Listener

def on_press(key):
    print(key) 

with Listener(on_press=on_press) as listener:
    listener.join()

I also tried one using keyboard module it also didn't work(code vanished). It doesn't return the chained(combined key presses)

how do i do that

my need is to make output look like (and examples)

key:'ctrl+x'
key:'c+x'
key:'ctrl+shift+f10'
key:'cmd + shift + alt'

It should record all possible ones and i dont want to use pyhook(or pyxhook) because it doesn't work properly(if you have it then you can post though)also I don't want to mention the key combination because there are way too many and I want to get all possible one(even if it doesn't do anything). Currently looking for only windows but if possible I like it to be cross platform.My os is windows 7 python 3.8.8 Thanks

To get specific combinations of keys you can register like so:

from pynput import keyboard

def on_activate_h():
    print('<ctrl>+<alt>+h pressed')

def on_activate_i():
    print('<ctrl>+<alt>+i pressed')

with keyboard.GlobalHotKeys({
        '<ctrl>+<alt>+h': on_activate_h,
        '<ctrl>+<alt>+i': on_activate_i}) as h:
    h.join()

To log all key presses, you could just create listeners for each key separately, and register them the same way
