Similar in style to evemu-play but parses the YAML printed by libinput-record. Note that this tool requires python-libevdev which is a new package and may not be packaged by your distribution. Install with pip3 or alternatively, just ignore libinput-replay, it's a developer tool only anyway. User-visible differences to evemu-play: * supports replaying multiple devices at the same time. * no replaying on a specific device, we can add this if we ever need it * --verbose prints the event to stdout as we are replaying them. This is particularly useful on long recordings - once the bug occurs we can ctrl+c and match up the last few lines with the recordings file. This allows us to e.g. drop the rest of the file.

|
|
This tool replays events from a recording through the the kernel and is
|

independent of libinput. In other words, updating or otherwise changing
|
|

|
|
need to be in use to replay events.
