Remember Cousin It from the old Addams Family shows or movies? Did he use a computer? Oh, wait — we never saw his hands… so he had to use something hands-off, didn’t he?
Maybe he could use AutoIt, the “freeware BASIC-like scripting language designed for automating the Windows GUI and general scripting. It uses a combination of simulated keystrokes, mouse movement and window/control manipulation in order to automate tasks in a way not possible or reliable with other languages (e.g. VBScript and SendKeys). AutoIt is also very small, self-contained and will run on all versions of Windows out-of-the-box with no annoying “runtimes” required!”
AutoIt is intended to create your own programs to perform Windows tasks with little programs that simulate someone using the mouse and/or keyboard.
