Hi all, I'm almost as new to this list as to python so I hope I don't
get a "this has been answered a 100 times before" or anything...
Currently I am using a program named 'Macro Scheduler' for automating
programs that don't have a command line version.
Its a simple scripting language that allows you to automate button
clicks, mouse movement, starting programs, checking the state of a
window, changing the focus, type text into an input field...etc.
Is there a way to do these things from within Python?
Thanks

If there is a Microsoft COM interface to your 'Macro Scheduler' program,
then you can drive it from Python code. See the win32com interface and
get Mark Hammond's book "Programmin g Python on Win32," or something like
that, from O'Reilly.

Hi,
I would like to create/delete ftp accounts of windows IIS,
and to control MS Media Service under windows 2003 by Python program.
A few days ago, I found there is iisftp.vbs vb-script that can

But I've suspected the iisftp cannot configure detailed
configueration.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
