It was widely used to provide a console interface to cli programs in the 90s, (I am reminded of my old favorite program "mikmod" for playing module music), but much less used now a days. I didn't read your post fully. If you want to generate clicks anywhere on desktop, ncurses won't work since it is tied to a terminal. You could try something like http://python-xlib.sourceforge.net/ See some discussion of this on http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2676434/x11-how-to-raise-another-applications-window-using-python Regarding ncurses, yes it will work on any console/terminal which supporse curses. That includes darwin (mac os x) and cygwin on windows. But of course not the DOS terminal. > > > > Please don't use X like the way you did in the 2nd approach, *nix > > really can do better than that.
