title: Is there a simple cross platform HID module for python?
body: <p>I'm trying to write some code that will fetch receive data from usb HID devices like scales. I've used pywinusb for windows but I need it to be cross platform. pyhid says it's just for Mac OS X. The only cross-platform module I've found so far is libhid which is written in C but still python accessible. However, I haven't found any helpful internet sources on how to use it in python.</p>
  
  <p>All I need to do is read the weight from usb scales.</p>
  
  <p>Are there any other cross-platform python HID modules>?</p>
