keylogger
A Linux based keylogger
A simple implementation of a keylogger that works without root access. In fact, i'm shocked how simple this is to do!
Usage
go run main.go -log /var/log/keylogger.log
The specified log will receive all keys pressed while it's executing. There may be a small time delay when logging keys due to file buffering.
Dependencies
This will only work on X11 based systems. It will not work with Wayland.
If your Linux distribution is X11 based then install the following packages to make sure you have the necessary source files.
sudo apt install libx11-dev libxi-dev
