Posted in Linux, Python on June 14, 2008 | 2 Comments »

display = display.Display()
Xlib.ext.xtest.fake_input(display, X.MotionNotify, x, y)
display.sync()
E simular um click ?
from Xlib import X, XK, display
import Xlib.ext.xtest

So, as S60 C++ involves the learning of C++ (which is kinda complex), Nokia has been releasing rapid development tools on the last couple of years. The very first one was Java followed by Python and, as I found out a while ago, Html/CSS/Javascript.
