Hi,
I've been looking at autohotkey to do some different usability hacks
for windows http://www.autohotkey.com/
one of the benefits of this language is it allows one to catch
keyboard usage, joystick usage, and mouse usage inputs very easily at
a global level or at application levels by watching applications for
events within the applications.
I was wondering if there were any python libraries that provided
similar functionality before I went ahead with the project though.
Cheers,

You might take a look at pyHook: http://sourceforge.net/project/showf...ckage_id=92632
Another option is to look at pywin32, which I believe has the
SetWindowsHook[Ex] commands, or to use ctypes (which is built in if
you're using python2.5) to load the neccessary dll's to use that
function. However, pyHook should be good unless you need something for
the joystick (don't think that's covered), or for detecting system or
dead keys (unless pyHook has been updated recently, the last time I
checked the docs said it didn't capture those keys).
Good Luck,
Jordan

I'm looking to make an app to record my mouse movements and play them
back.
It will essentially be for unit testing websites, so I suppose it
could be done using one of the wxPython MSIE ActiveX widgets, but I'd
like it to work on other platforms and not just in web browsers.
Anyone got any ideas for how this could be done?
I guess if reading/writing mouse movements is difficult, I could limit

Hi all:
I have an application that hides itself and displays an icon in the system
tray. Is it possible for this application to detect keystrokes and/or mouse
movements while hidden/minimized. So the application is not loaded and
visible, so mouse movements on the form won't work, I need the program to be
able to detect mouse movement on the system level.
Thanks in advance.

Hi.
How to simulate(automatic) mouse movements and click operation using c#.
Actually, i got pixels in the face (face tracking) right now and i need to move mouse(automatically, without using mouse manually) i.e., simulate mouse click operation using those pixels in c#.
I think we can use robot() class in java , to achieve this, but how can we do this using c#.
Hope you understand my problem and get bck to me asap.

Good morning folk,
a quick question to anyone who can help.
i am working on a program and i am using the below code to simulate mouse movement to certain
co-ords, but the thing is the co-ords 0 , 0 refer to the position at the very top left of the monitor.
what i want is for the co-ords 0 , 0 to refer to the top left in my form so the mouse clicks and
movements stay inside the form.

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.
