I am trying to find out how to move the mouse cursor N pixels to some direction.... through a command script, since I cannot install anything on my computer.
I basic
The most straightforward way to manipulate mouse with batch file is with
rundll32 user32.dll,SetCursorPos
But this is not very useful - just sets the mouse to 0,0 position.
Check the mouse.bat - it is a self compiled C#/batch file and does not require external tools and the source is visible and editable.
Examples:
//clicks at the current position
call mouse click
//double clicks at the current position
call mouse doubleClick
//right clicks at the current position
call mouse rightClick
//returns the position of the cursor
call mouse position
//scrolls up the mouse wheel with 1500 units
call mouse scrollUp 150
//scrolls down with 100 postitions
call mouse scrollDown 100
//relatively(from the current position) moves the mouse with 100 horizontal and 100 vertial postitions
call mouse moveBy 100x100
//absolute positioning
call mouse moveTo 100x100
//relative drag (lefclick and move)
call mouse dragBy 300x200
//absolute drag
call mouse dragTo 500x500
(Late answer but can still be useful for others) If you just want to keep your computer from falling asleep, the software "Caffeine" does this quite well.
You could try installing AutoHotKey. It makes controlling mouse very simple. Example script:
#MaxThreadsPerHotkey 3
^g::
Toggle := !Toggle
Loop
{
If (!Toggle)
Break
Click
Sleep 1000 ; Make this number higher for slower clicks, lower for faster.
}
Return
After running script for this example press control+g and it will click every second to keep screen awake. ctrl+g again to stop.

Search for NirCmd, and install it in C:\windows, and do:
nircmd setcursor 100 50
nircmd movecursor 10 10
or another commands for clicks etc.
