keyboard emulation

[Oliver Vecernik]

Hi,

I'd like to write an app reading data from a barcode scanner via RS232
and send them depending on contents either to the keyboard buffer or to
a file. Any active app should receive the data via keyboard buffer. The
user should be able to use either the barcode scanner or the keyboard.

My question is: how can this be achieved with python? Is it possible to
make the solution platform independent (Win and Linux)?

Regards,
Oliver
