Do you think it is possible to do a patchmanager3 patch from that script and execute code on Key events? Or is it a potential battery hog?

EDIT:
Now i have the script altered for gpio read out and found code 10 is the state of the Keyboard.
10 - release is opened
10 - pressed is closed

EDIT 2:
Now i am able to switch on the keyboard backlight when it opens with this action in sf-button-monitor.conf

Code:

action=cmd(echo 1 > /sys/class/leds/keyboard-backlight/brightness),kb,always

where "kb" is defined as following in the script:

Code:

  [qw(10   KBD_STATE kb)],

I have not quite figured out how to set the backlight back to 0 on kbd close. But that is done anyway when the display goes off.

EDIT 3:
I just created a .desktop file in /user/share/applications/ to start the script from app-grid.
Works for now :P
