Depending on your platform, you will need the following python modules for PyUserInput to function:

• Linux - Xlib (python-xlib)
• Mac - Quartz, AppKit
• Windows - pywin32, pyHook

If you don't have the dependencies appropriate for your system, the installation of PyUserInput should warn you of that fact.

PyUserInput on Windows depends on pywin32, a set of Windows extensions for Python. To install them, please visit http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/pywin32/, choose the latest build, and download and run the file corresponding to your version and architecture of Python.

PyUserInput is registered on PyPI (Python Package Index) and updated periodically, so tools such as pip or easy_install should work.

pip install PyUserInput

You can download a zip file from Github or a tar.gz file from PyPI that contains the source code. Once you have uncompressed the file into a directory, you should navigate a terminal session to the directory that contains setup.py. The next step is to type the following command:

python setup.py install

If you are on linux and have a problem with permissions, you may need to prepend the command with sudo. For any other installation problems, open an issue on GitHub.
