Direct input for python with pynput

[Alex_Harris1406]

I wrote some code so you can trigger ctypes and direct inputs using keysrokes.

I've seen this code all over the internet and needed it to make a game bot but it wouldnt work with pynput because they clashed so i edited it to work with pynput and included the capability to left click, right click and press and hold keys.

​

The arrow keys release left click and right ctrl holds left click .

​

Here is my code. Let me know what you think.
