1//! OS-level mouse-event hook for OpenLogi.
2//!
3//! | Platform | Implementation |
4//! |----------|---------------|
5//! | macOS | `CGEventTap` (same primitive used by Logi Options+) |
6//! | Linux | `evdev` grab + `uinput` re-injection |
7//! | Windows | `WH_MOUSE_LL` low-level mouse hook |
8//!
9//! # Usage
10//!
11//! ```no_run
12//! use openlogi_hook::{Hook, MouseEvent, EventDisposition};
13//!
14//! if !Hook::has_accessibility() {
15//! eprintln!("grant Accessibility access first");
16//! return;
17//! }
18//!
19//! let hook = Hook::start(|event| {
20//! println!("{event:?}");
21//! EventDisposition::PassThrough
22//! }).unwrap();
23//!
24//! // … later, on shutdown:
25//! hook.stop();
26//! ```
