Before I start implementing this on my own, does something like this already exist?
I have a keyboard & mouse, that can be paired to multiple devices via #Bluetooth.
I have two laptops, connected to a single screen.
I'm looking for a way, to switch the screen inputs, based on the "device selection" keys of my keyboard, so the tool should basically:
- listen to the corresponding HCI command/event
- trigger the switch via DDC/CI
