Base global plugin. Global plugins facilitate the implementation of new global commands, support for objects which may be found across many applications, etc. Each global plugin should be a separate Python module in the globalPlugins package containing a GlobalPlugin class which inherits from this base class. Global plugins can implement and bind gestures to scripts which will take effect at all times. See ScriptableObject for details. Global plugins can also receive NVDAObject events for all NVDAObjects. This is done by implementing methods called event_eventName, where eventName is the name of the event; e.g. event_gainFocus. These event methods take two arguments: the NVDAObject on which the event was fired and a callable taking no arguments which calls the next event handler.
