Debug

Known issues

gotchaOn Linux, rdev requires root privileges or appropriate permissions to capture global input events.

fix

Run the application with sudo or configure udev rules for input devices.

affects: *

gotchaThe listen function blocks the main thread; use a separate thread or async runtime if you need concurrent operations.

fix

Wrap listen in std::thread::spawn or use an async executor.
