remove win32 dependency in favor of ctypes

Open hannesdelbeke opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

this PR continues on the work from @friedererdmann his PR It removes the dependency on win32gui but without adding a new dependency on keyboards.

  • less dependencies is better, since less chance for issues and errors
  • this prevents dependency bugs, example mentioned here:

This is because the pywin32 dependency is not installed.

Currently, you can make it work by manually installing pywin32.
