For Windows at least it looks like its done rather easily in C++ by making a
.dll and attaching it to programs so it can catch and record all keystrokes:
http://www.keylogger.org/articles.cgi?in=Keyboard_Hook&id=6 .
I imagine you could probably implement all that in Ruby by calling the
appropriate Windows libraries and rewriting that C++ in Ruby or something to
that effect (That would be a Ruby Noob's assumption though, so it very well
might be wrong).
