Keysym dection in background?

Submitted by Anonymous on Tue, 07/25/2000 - 14:19. Developers
I would like to write a program like xev( a tool in LINUX) to monitor the key presses but I would like it runs as a daemon process. When a special key (i.g. Home key) is pressed, the daemon sends a signal to a special application which is able to receive the signal.

My question is Can I write a Xlib program with XEvent without windows(No tty) so the program can run as a daemon process?

Thanks!
