key-mon is now packaged up and in the process of being included in the Fedora repos.

The builds are all done, and it should show up in the fedora repos for Fedora 19 and Fedora 20 in the next couple of days.At the moment it is just version 1.16, but i should be able to push 1.17 fairly soon.

Fedora users should be able to get keymon from the fedora repos with a simple:

    yum install key-mon


cheers,

Nope, nothing to do, this was more just a heads up that it is now in Fedora. :)

That said, once it is in the repos, would I be able to update the http://code.google.com/p/key-mon/ page with a few lines on how to install on Fedora?

Also, i blogged about it here -- http://www.ryanlerch.org/blog/key-mon-an-on-screen-mouse-keyboard-visualiser-will-soon-be-in-fedora/ -- with a GIF of key-mon in action. Feel free to use the gif there, it is licensed CC-0 :)

Great job! I used to be a Fedora user, good to see someone picking up
a good program.

Maybe it's a chance to update the homepage of key-mon with a list of
availability by distributions?

I checked up a few:

Arch Linux (AUR): https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/key-mon/
Debian: <Scott knows for sure>
Fedora: <Ryan can fill in>
Gentoo Overlays: app-misc/key-mon (Armageddon)
Linux Mint: http://community.linuxmint.com/software/view/key-mon
Mageia: http://mageia.madb.org/package/show/release/3/name/key-mon
Ubuntu: https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/key-mon/

None of them are my distributions, except Gentoo, so I might not link
to the right page. Though I don't use overlay, either, might not list
the best overlay.

By the way, in the "Installation", I think it'd be better to add
additional note on installing manually via pip or east_install. I just
realized that key-mon is already on PyPI. I'd do it by myself, but the
source code of project homepage seems that owner can edit.
