this kbd tool seems to lock randomly my keyboard.
it is locked after the test and take some time with mouse focusing to get the 
keyboard back.
even worse happen when i change desktop, getting keyboard back to work needs 
magic.
killing the whole testing in the middle is also hard.
very strange: my guess is that the whole problem is actually related to killing the tests run. `xvkbd' works by focusing continuously on the target window before sending the keys, and with my "-no_root" patch it will simply exits with error if it doesn't find a target lyx window. So, I suspect your "keyboard locked" problem is probably due to an attempt to kill the testing script, where there were still xvkbd invocations running in the background (i.e., the script didn't actually
terminate).

I noticed terminating the scripts is an issue, I was thinking the best thing to have would be a simple separate window with a "Red Button" (perhaps to be programmed via tcl/tk): clicking on it should reach anyway a callback that kill all the scripting,
no matter what the MonKey is typing.
to sum it up, the previous version was better,
I could keep it as optional (removing sources from the tree, but keeping a script that downloads the sources and applies my patch, useful for Linux users), if enabled by
some environment var.
