I have a third party GUI that manages some hardware.

I want to control the hardware from a Python script.

This seems to mean I need to somehow have Python code

 actions on the GUI (selecting menu options, pressing buttons, etc.)

Is this possible / easy / doable?

Thanks!

Hi Chris

THere are two approaches for this. If the appication is inheritenty 
controllable, e.g. through COM, then you can use win32com.


Alternatively, you can go down the route of "Robotic Process Automation" 
using something like https://github.com/OakwoodAI/Automagica


Hope this helps,

I thought usenet specified fixed font. If you  use something else don't
complain. 

The Troll don't look pretty in fixed font either:-)
