Curious of xnee, I installed it to try out too, I was hit by the same
error, launching in -v suggested the program was stopping after
"closing down while loop in async loop", I grepped for that in the
source and found it would exit after a variable (presumably the number
of events to record) would reach 0, this var being initialized to 100.
Try running:
xnee --record --mouse --keyboard --future-clients --out rec.xnl \
--100k-log
you should have room for more events.
In general, keyboard and mouse record and replay worked fine here, but
I did not particularly configure xnee for special cases like compose
keys or meta keys, the biggest problem being that the documentation is
a bit confuse to me.
I think that this program is a bit low-level for the tests you might
want to achieve, and it exposes various problems to the test suite that
are not very interesting: it has to follow strict timings, and might
not be able to replay what you did as fast as you want it to.
I've found dogtail[1] to be quite interesting, perhaps it is the good
layer for the integration of functional checks in your packages?
