This interests me because I started out in Electrical engineering
school in college.  I'm intrigued by raspberry pi.  I bet you would
find specific answers reading about how the hardware works.  Does
Raspberry pi come with push buttons that are connected to some io
ports or a usb port or a keyboard or?

If there is no physical switch, one of the gui frameworks for python
certainly will have hooks to invoke code when a (virtual) button is
pressed.

Maybe find a Raspberry pi newsgroup?
