Fixes:

• Silence OSError in destructor (thanks @polyphemus).
• Make InputDevice.close() work in cases in which stdin (fd 0) has been closed (thanks @polyphemus).

Enhancements:

• Rework documentation and docstrings.

Fixes:

• Call InputDevice.close() in InputDevice.__del__().

Fixes:

• Fix reference counting in device_read, device_read_many and ioctl_capabilities.

Enhancements:

• Add FF_* and FF_STATUS codes to ecodes (thanks @bgilbert).

• Reverse event code mappings (ecodes.{KEY,FF,REL,ABS} and etc.) will now map to a list of codes, whenever a value corresponds to multiple codes:

  >>> ecodes.KEY[152]
  ... ['KEY_COFFEE', 'KEY_SCREENLOCK']
  >>> ecodes.KEY[30]
  ... 'KEY_A'
  

• Set the state of a LED through device.set_led() (thanks @accek). device.fd is opened in O_RDWR mode from now on.

Fixes:

• Fix segfault in device_read_many() (thanks @bgilbert).

Fixes:

• Raise IOError from device_read() and device_read_many() when read() fails.
• Several stability and style changes (thank you debian code reviewers).

Fixes:

• Fix vendor id and product id order in DeviceInfo (thanks @kived).

Fixes:

• device.read() will return an empty tuple if the device has nothing to offer (instead of segfaulting).
• Exclude unnecessary package data in sdist and bdist.

Enhancements:

• Add ability to set/get auto-repeat settings with EVIOC{SG}REP.
• Add device.version - the value of EVIOCGVERSION.
• Add device.read_loop().
• Add device.grab() and device.ungrab() - exposes EVIOCGRAB.
• Add device.leds - exposes EVIOCGLED.
• Replace DeviceInfo class with a namedtuple.

Fixes:

• device.read_one() was dropping events.
• Rename AbsData to AbsInfo (as in struct input_absinfo).

Enhancements:

• Add the ability to set arbitrary device capabilities on uinput devices (defaults to all EV_KEY ecodes).
• Add UInput.device which is an open InputDevice to the input device that uinput 'spawns'.
• Add UInput.capabilities() which is just a shortcut to UInput.device.capabilities().
• Rename UInput.write() to UInput.write_event().
• Add a simpler UInput.write(type, code, value) method.
• Make all UInput constructor arguments optional (default device name is now py-evdev-uinput).
• Add the ability to set absmin, absmax, absfuzz and absflat when specifying the uinput device's capabilities.
• Remove the nophys argument - if a device fails the EVIOCGPHYS ioctl, phys will equal the empty string.
• Make InputDevice.capabilities() perform a EVIOCGABS ioctl for devices that support EV_ABS and return that info wrapped in an AbsData namedtuple.
• Split ioctl_devinfo into ioctl_devinfo and ioctl_capabilities.
• Split uinput_open() to uinput_open() and uinput_create()
• Add more uinput usage examples and documentation.
• Rewrite uinput tests.
• Remove mouserel and mouseabs from UInput.
• Tie the sphinx version and release to the distutils version.
• Set 'methods-before-attributes' sorting in the docs.

Fixes:

• Remove KEY_CNT and KEY_MAX from ecodes.keys.

Enhancements:

• Add events.keys, which is a combination of all BTN_ and KEY_ event codes.

Fixes:

• ecodes.c was not generated when installing through pip.
