ENTER gets repeated by terminal when creating new device

[guettli]

thank you very much for this package. I guess my issue is not a bug, but maybe you can help.

I wrote a tool to configure custom keyboard commands: tff

When I start the program, then my code plays "man in the middle" and changes some events.

Overall it works fine.

Except when the program gets started, then the ENTER to start the sudo ... command does not get to the terminal correctly. The UP event seems to get lost, and the terminal repeats "ENTER" until a new key gets pressed.

sudo ~guettli/go/bin/tff  combos my-combos.yaml /dev/input/by-path/platform-i8042-serio-0-event-kbd /dev/inpu
t/by-id/usb-Lenovo_ThinkPad_Compact_USB_Keyboard_with_TrackPoint-event-kbd

      (the ENTER Up does not get to the terminal, and ENTER gets repeated)

It does not happen always.

When I start it like this: sleep 1; sudo ... then it does not happen, because the ENTER-Up to start the program is already gone.

Should I do Grab() and CloneDevice() somehow differently, so that it gets done after all UP events have been processed?

I guess the terminal does not expect the UP event to come from a different device.

It is not a big problem. But somehow confusing.

Do you have an idea how to fix that?
