  1. okay, managed to write a simple #textEditor in #Python using #wxPython and #pyWinhook that will trap any #KeyDown I don't like. It's crude, doesn't handle capitals or altGraph symbols, and is likely #Windows-only for now, but I'll share the #code later tonight. :)

    A lucky added benefit of this is that in the process I realised I can use the same principle to temporarily disable the mute key #BeardGrabber keeps hitting. Already wrote a simpler #CLI version of it. 😄

  2. @fireborn Looks like #Windows's Single App Kiosk accounts (docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windo) could indeed be a way to go, though I'd still need an editor that doesn't have too many of its own shortcuts or menus he could get stuck in.

    Currently looking into creating a simple #Python app with #wxPython and #PyWinhook that will do both instead. :)
