Could you describe how you got it to work?

I'm no xlib expert, I cobbled those functions together mostly from StackOverflow answers. But if there's a solution for this, I'd love to get pull requests.

But for me personally anyway, this isn't on my road map of things to do. You might have better luck with something like Selenium.

Just got it to work! Sorry for the invalid request. Looks like your mod doesn't depend on physical interfaces in the hardware. Good thing. For me. And probably others.

Side note: Is there a way to pass variables copied using keyboard shortcuts? I have 'ctrl' 'c' copied a line of text, and would like to know if your module has any knowledge of the content performed by shortcuts.

Thanks!

Selenium is dope. But for the kinds of authentication I'm working around, this tool is ideal.

Has anyone tested this with Xvfb or it's successor (can't recall the name offhand)? They implement a passable X server that can be utilized by exporting DISPLAY=:99 or something similar and running Xvfb with the appropriate arguments.

Currently PyAutoGUI doesn't support remote/headless machines. I've created a master issue #133 to track the development of this feature.
