One possible avenue to keylogging might be to start a shell, over the
keyboard processing layer, presuming the shell do only simple things
over its standard input.

But most likely, the shell is playing termios trickery and such things.
So one might have to use pty's to get a working solution.  Agreed, this
is not all evident, and probably too much of a challenge for a beginner.
