Thanks for the link to Winspector - with this tool it's really easy to find out the names required to get down to the window elements of a running application. In the special case of speedfan there seems to be no way to get the temperatures shown in Reading tab into a Python script, because the texts with the temperature values are not separate window elements. The only message sent to "TJvPanel" (it's the class of the element with the temperatures) is WM_PAINT with 0, 0 values, so the actual temperatures are "hidden" from beeing accessed as easy as the value of the checkbox. Knowing the rectangle of the "TJvPanel" it should be probably possible to OCR the text shown, but this is another story. By the way: is there a free tool (primary for Windows, but best for both Linux and Windows) able to get the text of the word under the current mouse pointer position like it is done e.g. by Babylon translator?
