This Python script demonstrates a simple keylogger with a Tkinter GUI for setting the log file path. It records keystrokes and saves them to a log file. The log file's name is generated based on the current date and time.

• Records keystrokes and saves them to a log file.
• Allows you to specify the log file path using a Tkinter GUI.
• Excludes certain keys from recording (e.g., Shift, Backspace, Caps Lock, etc.).
• Limits the number of characters per line in the log file.

To run this script, you need the following libraries installed:

• tkinter: For the GUI.
• pynput: For monitoring and recording keyboard input.

You can installpynput using pip:

pip install pynput
