Allows you to listen for Global Keyboard and Mouse events so even if your application is inactive, it'll still capture Mouse and Keyboard input. This can be used to make global keyboard shortcuts for example.
The solution itself was created using Visual Studio 2017 so you'll probably only be able to open it through that however, if you are using the prebuilt library (.dll) or the Nuget package. It's target framework is .Net Framework 4.6.1.
There is a Demo project included which shows you how to use the library. The events, enumerations, types, properties and whatnot also have summarized descriptions so you can use the object browser to learn more about them.

Currently, I'm working full time making open source software and free assets and using my savings to pay my bills so I hope you help me with that by either:
-
if you want make a one time donation.
-
if you want to donate evey month.
- Siarhei Kuchuk for his answer on Global keyboard capture in C# application at Stack Overflow. I built the foundation of the library from the code that he provided.
- To all the people who answered on Global mouse event handler at Stack Overflow. I reused some of the codes to make the Global Mouse Hook.
- Finally, to Rasmus for his answer on GET_WHEEL_DELTA_WPARAM macro in C# at Stack Overflow. The code he provided was the basis for the
GetSignedHWORD,GetSignedLWORD,GetUnsignedHWORDandGetUnsignedLWORDhelper methods.
