First of all the solution 1 seems perfect to me...

Anyway, try to improve the way you ask things in cases like this one... a keylogger is something that can be used in a malicious way so here a lot of people will react to this like John. It is normal. Usually explaining a little bit what you want to achieve will give you better and more concise answers.

Good luck with the keylogger (of course if it is not for malicious purposes)...

Solution 2

Why do you want to write a key-logger?

Did you consider using google? When I did, I got 975,000 results back. You can too. Google is free.
