cygwin /dev/input/eventX functionality - cygwin

Does anyone know if cygwin has functionality similar to /dev/input/eventX on linux? The only reference to this I could find online was this: http://polarhome.com/service/man/?qf=input-linux-evdev&tf=2&of=Cygwin&sf=7. But I can't for the life of me figure out how to install this package (or if it is even one I need). Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I'm using VSC latest version on OSX Big Sur, with the Python extension and a couple of theme and icon extensions.
I'm not sure if the extra information shown below for the print function and others can be turned off.
If so and someone knows the proper name and how to disable them I'd appreciate it.

Installed nvim with Chocolatey can't seem to find nvim location

Good day to yo all, I started learning coding and Web Development a little bit ago, do i started using nvim a little over a week ago, i'm still learning how to use it properly and one of the things i wanted to do was configure a couple thing in .vimrc however it seems first i need to alter some stuff in init.vim. My main problem is i installed nvim with Chocolatey and have no bloody idea where to find init.vim.
If anyone has any idea or has had the same issue, some help would be greatly appreciated.
I don't think init.vim will exist initially, you need to create it at ~/AppData/Local/nvim/init.vim

How can I enable spell checker in google colab (colab operates on linux OS)?

Can we enable spell checker for markdown cells in google colab in any way? Please help.
I'm not aware of any way of doing so directly within Google Colaboratory, however a usable workaround might be to install a third party spell-checking browser plug-in such as Grammarly or another similar plug-in that works with your preferred browser, I know this probably wasn't the answer you where looking for, but I'm not aware of any better solutions, I truly apologize! But I hope this was at least somewhat helpful!
Sorry I can't be of more help!
If you're comfortable with PyCharm, you can open your ipynb files in it, and it will highlight any spelling errors.
PyCharm professional edition was used to test this.

Find installed MSVC with NSIS Installer?

I would like to find out if any kind of a Microsoft Visual package is installed during my Nsis installation (I need the Compiler from those Microsoft packages (C,C++ Compiler))
One possibility could be to have a look in the registry...but it would always be a different entry.
So far I´ve got no good solution to detect a MSVC maybe anyone else does?
Your best bet is probably to look in the registry. You could take a look at some open source build tools and see how they do it. (SCons etc.)
The other alternative would be to search all drives for cl.exe with FindFirst and friends but that could be slow and you would probably have to check the version information to filter out false positives...
