unhandled keyboard sabotaging (urgent)

[adamgulde]

Problem: keyboard module hooks the entire keyboard until “esc” is pressed. This includes global events outside of the command prompt, so if a certain Module using keyboard isn’t closed properly, we potentially sabotage the user’s computer. This is bad.

Proposed solution: find a different way to get input without using the input() function and without using keyboard module. This may actually be easier on Linus than Windows: see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/64035952/how-to-key-press-detection-on-a-linux-terminal-low-level-style-in-python

Maybe it's O.K. to use keyboard on windows, but the program will need to automatically unhook when the command prompt goes out of focus and rehook when it returns in focus.
