I'll look into that, it seems as it might work. If D would

Thanks.
I tried to test out that de_window library but it doesnt work
out
of the box.
The guy who created it though does post in this forum so
maybe if
he magically finds this thread he can help you and me out.
That would be nice. I'll see if there's a way to PM him about
it. Do
you have any other programming language recommendations in
case this
doesn't work out?
Sorry that functionality of de_window is out of scope of it. So
of course, it won't work for what you want, it just creates a
window and a context cross platform with input for that window.
The functionality you are wanting is possible against winapi
and x11 fairly easily. Its just low level. Although X11 is a
little easier as it can be done via a program on cli.
Unfortunately c/c++ will help you as much as D will in these
cases.
If you run into trouble with those api's we can help you. But
you will need help, these are topics that aren't recommended
for a newbie.
I'm not quite sure how to receive key presses from other
windows. Maybe Mike Parker (aldracon) has some ideas.
Do you have plans for making win32 bindings for the sendkeys?
Im interested in this too. Id like to do it with D but ive only
ever been able to accomplish this task with C# and InputSimulator.
