About SilentScribe

SilentScribe is a simple Python script for logging keyboard events, including key presses and key combinations. It is designed for educational purposes or for personal use. Please be aware that using keyloggers for malicious purposes is illegal and unethical.

Features

• Records keyboard events and logs them with timestamps.
• Supports logging of key presses and key combinations (e.g., Ctrl+Alt+Delete).
• Periodically flushes the log buffer to a specified log file.
• Logs running processes along with their IDs and names.
• Runs as a background process.

The code automatically creates a text file in the directory with the script where it is located and keeps a detailed log of keystrokes and running processes. When launched, it logs all running processes once, and then only new ones.
