Just browsing through some blogs and I came across this beauty (Open Source PC/MAC/LINUX)

http://groups.csail.mit.edu/uid/sikuli/

What's SIKULI?

Sikuli is a visual technology to search and automate graphical user interfaces (GUI) using images (screenshots). The first release of Sikuli contains Sikuli Script, a visual scripting API for Jython, and Sikuli IDE, an integrated development environment for writing visual scripts with screenshots easily. Sikuli Script automates anything you see on the screen without internal API's support. You can programmatically control a web page, a desktop application running on Windows/Linux/Mac OS X, or even an iphone application running in an emulator.


It is from MIT research and is amazing. I'm used to scripting but this is another level. Watch some of the demo videos like the panda one, amazing that you can do that with little or no programming.

Give is a good I'm sure everyone can find a use for this 8-) :lol:

That would save so much time after a full reinstall if you could save the processes separately and then import them.

Looks quite interesting. I've been using Automator on my work Mac over the last couple of weeks to automate some repetitive tasks, and I've been trying to find something similar (and free) for PC. I don't think this is what I'm after, but I might take a closer look.

I wonder if you could program it to play WoW for you.
