Control your PC keyboard and mouse via serial messages from a microcontroller
board like the BBC micro:bit or Arduino.

This is done by loading any of the pre-made libraries into the microcontroller
board, and then executing in the PC application from this repository.

Embedded libraries to use with this application:
- [x] [BBC micro:bit MicroPython module](https://github.com/carlosperate/micropython-microbit-pc-control/)
- [ ] BBC micro:bit MakeCode extension not yet done
- [ ] Arduino library not yet done

## This Is Currently Under Development!

This project is still under heavy development, so it can be a little bit
unstable or incomplete.

Current way to install and run it is with [poetry](https://python-poetry.org):

```
$ git clone https://github.com/carlosperate/serial-pc-control.git
$ cd serial-pc-control
$ poetry install
$ poetry run python serial_pc_control/process_cmds.py
```

Current status:
- [x] Controlling the mouse position is working.
- [x] Mouse left click and right click are working.
- [x] Typing text from the keyboard is working.
- [ ] Typing special keys from the keyboard (arrow keys, shift, alt, etc) not
  yet implemented
- [x] Tested in macOS
- [ ] Not yet tested in Windows, although it should work
- [ ] Not yet tested in Linux, although it should work
- [x] Automatically detecting the micro:bit or Arduino serial port is working.
- [x] CLI interface includes command line arguments to manually select the
  por and baud rate.
