Using Perl, Python, or Ruby, how to write a program to “click” on the screen at scheduled time?

Question

Using Perl, Python, or Ruby, can I write a program, probably calling Win32 API, to \"click\" on the screen at scheduled time, like every 1 hour?

Answer 1

To answer the actual question, in Perl, you would use the SendMouse (and the associated functions) provided by the Win32::GuiTest module.

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

use Win32::GuiTest qw( MouseMoveAbsPix SendMouse );

MouseMoveAbsPix(640,400);
SendMouse "{LEFTCLICK}";

__END__

UPDATE:

What if some virus scanning program pops up covering up the place where the click should happen?

In that case, you would use FindWindowLike to find the window and MouseClick to send a click to that specific window.
