[–] Dymonika@kbin.social 1 point 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 child) Hmm, thanks. Can it simulate mouse-clicks? Apparently, xdotool can! I guess the next thing would be generating GUIs. I think the final issue is that this would cause quite the fragmentation given how I use the same scripts on my Windows-only work laptop... but I'll think about this more... permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] themoonisacheese@sh.itjust.works 1 point 2 years ago An alternative is python, it can do GUIs easily, and it does have mouse-control facilités as well and it is cross plaform. That being said generally on Linux you don't even need to automate mouse click, as almost all of it can be controllers with straight up commands. permalink fedilink source parent
