Overview

Suppress mouse & keyboard events on MacOSX

Catches all events (mouse, keyboard, everything), and either consumes them (locked state) or passes them through (unlocked state). The locked state can be switched by the magic keyboard sequences "lock31337" for locking, or "unlock" for unlocking. (Remember this before you run the binary!)

Installation

clang -o event-trap.bin event-trap.m -framework Cocoa

Usage

sudo ./event-trap.bin
