Keystroke Logger Script

This is a simple Python-based keystroke logger that records every key press on the keyboard and saves it to a text file named keystrokes.txt.

Prerequisites

Before running the script, ensure that you have Python installed on your system. You'll also need to install the keyboard module, which can be done using pip.

Installation

1. Install Python: If you don't already have Python installed, download and install it from Python's official website.

2. Install the keyboard Module: Open a terminal or command prompt and run the following command:

   pip install keyboard

How It Works

• Logging Keystrokes: The script listens for key presses and writes each one to a file named keystrokes.txt in the same directory where the script is executed.

Usage

1. Save the script to a file, for example, keystroke_logger.py.

2. Navigate to the directory containing the script.

3. Run the script using Python:

   python keystroke_logger.py

4. The script will start logging keystrokes and save them to keystrokes.txt.

5. Stopping the Script: To stop the script, you can manually interrupt it in the terminal by pressing Ctrl + C.
