KEYLOGGER

🔑 Basic Keylogger

• This program records and logs every key you press on your keyboard.
• It saves all keystrokes to a file named keylog.txt in the same folder.
• The program runs in the background and safely exits when you press the ESC key.

⚙️ How It Works

1. Uses the pynput library to listen to keyboard events.
2. Normal characters (letters, numbers) are written directly.
3. Special keys (like Enter, Space) are written inside [brackets].
4. Pressing ESC stops the keylogger and closes the program.
