Xautomation, control X from the command line, and find things on the screen.

Xautomation is a control X from the command line for scripts, and do "visual scraping" to find things on the screen.

The conrol interface allows mouse movement, clicking, button up/down, key up/down, etc, and uses the XTest extension so you don't have the annoying problems that xse has when apps ignore sent events.

The visgrep program find images inside of images and reports the coordinates, allowing progams to find buttons, etc, on the screen to click on.
