There isn't a functional [hidio] for Windows. There is a bunch of test sketchs. Plus it wouldn't work for mice or keyboards because Windows blocks access to those devices with its HID API.

There is an old [hidin] for Windows that's included with Pd-extended, but that won't get you mice/keyboards either. You need to use the 'raw input' API for that, IIRC.

Hello list,

I'm trying to develop cross-platform, but I can't figure out how to
get [hidio] to compile on Windows.  OS X and Linux were easy with that
makefile!  I only need mouse/trackpad and keyboard entry, and I like
the format that [hidio] uses and the more complete key mapping.  Is
Windows [hidio] ready for these purposes?  If not, is there anything I
can do?  If so, can someone either compile for me or (maybe even
better) explain to me how to compile this on Windows?

Thanks very much for any help.  I hope everyone here enjoys my
eventual results when I share them.
