Does anyone know of a keystroke logger that has been written in Python 
for Windows machines? I'd like to see such a script and use it as a 
point of reference for a real-time backup project that I'm working on. 
Basically, I'd like to be able to capture all keystrokes from the 
keyboard buffer and write them to a text file so I could reporduce 
emails, documents, etc. in the event of file loss that occurs between 
nightly backups. For example, my boss comes to me, he has deleted an 
email that he was writing... he has been working on the email all day... 
and he expects me to wave a magic wand and bring it back.

Thanks for any advice, code or pointers. Also, if Python isn't suited 
for this, let me know and I'll look at doing this in c
