I am aware that touch events might be out of scope of libuiohook (#62). Nevertheless, there are many touch-devices especially running Windows and it might be handy to distinguish mouse events from touch events. It appears to me that on win32-level these two kind of inputs are mixed together, but there is a flag to check whether an event was caused by a mouse or by a touch: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45473673/how-to-distinguish-touch-vs-mouse-event-from-setwindowshookex-in-c-sharp
I have drafted a solution for Windows in this pull request. I personally am fine with it functioning on Windows only, yet, I understand if this can only be merged if a solution for macOS and X11 (Wayland?) is found as well.
