Proof of concept script to disable the touchpad while typing

[Luke]

finally got around to trying it, and it works really well I must say good job

edit: suggestions on how to best run it at startup ?

I made a wrapper shell script that just starts it with

Code:

sudo python3 PATH/touchpadsleep.py

 (my user account has NOPASSWD in sudoers) 

and added that shell script in
System>Preferences>Personal>Startup

Ah. Yes, I tried that too - but didn't think of setting no password for my account ... Thanks for sharing this, although I still would like to keep my password for a variety or reasons.
