It looks like the new ruff linter doesn't like some existing untouched code in the demo.py file, specifically this line. @astrokin if you change it to a format string in your branch it should get the PR build check working.

f"{addr}:{cast(int, info.port)}"

Let's address that separately. I can take care of it. The only reason I haven't merged this yet is that I haven't found time to test that it works. The code looks good. @Nerwyn have you tested this?

BTW thanks @astrokin for your contribution!

Sending text via the demo script is working for me! Although as astrokin mentioned above it requires the on screen keyboard to be closed first.
