SendKeys

Description

Requirements

adb available and pathed in
android device connected and available
python3 (>= 3.3), python2 (>= 2.7) is still supported.

python3 SendKeys.py

Notes

This utility may be slow with multiple special keys as they are sent through adb and processed one at. Normal keys may be queued up and and sent in batches. It is generally faster to navigate with the touchpad on Glass and use SendKeys for other data entry.
