When you ask for keying by hamlib, you are asking for keying via CAT, correct? (I would have to look to see if hamlib supports anything besides the CAT port on rigs, like the key line.)
I wrote a python application that acts like cwdaemon listening on a network socket, and drives a USB to key adapter (K1EL WinKeyer USB). I need to push a python3 version of that to github. (I plan to do over next week's holiday.) That works great, but I have been thinking about trying keying from the CAT port. It might work great functionally. Reducing cabling would be a benefit. But, I'll probably keep the ability to use a key line interface for playing with HB or old rigs. On my todo list was to look at the hamlib server mode. It will talk to a network server version of itself, no? So, that might be an interesting way for me to insert my own application. Would still need to have TLF modified to use hamlib for keying, though. Alternatively, for fun, my application could use CAT for keying, but it could present both a hamlib socket interface for CAT and a cwdaemon interface for keying. This could work with existing TLF. Please point me to Ervin's Python 2 script or send me a copy. Chances are good that I can port it to Python 3 for you. (I routinely deal with the socket and pyserial issues that 2to3 doesn't automagically fix.)
