I will answer honestly : I have no idea how to do that.
The advantage of porting the code is that you can more easily use it. Adjustements and fixes are easy to make.
When I talk about a touch library, my port defines a new class which can be used in Python code. In your Python code you just define a variable from this class, which simply sends you the coordonates you clicked on. That is very easy to use this way.
And for the keyboard, the reason I did that was curiosity. I found the way it was coded very elegant and I used many tricks from it in my other project.
Oh and porting these scripts was not that long, these are small files!
Then, I used these two librairies to create my wolfram alpha app. I built this app completely on my own (that is not a port)
