Hi,

I need to script SAP GUI running on MS-Windows:

Open SAP GUI window, if it is not already open, and then batch input
some keystrokes.

The following solutions were found by google:

- autohotkey: not preferred, since it has an own programming
language. This will slow down development.
- pyHook
- user pywin32 and SetWindowsHookEx

I develop with python since seven years, but only on linux.

Any hints?

First of all Linux is much better place.

why you want to automate GUI with python. You can easily use QTP such
GUI testing tools to automate your staff.

But that does not mean I am saying the Python is bad in any way. Py and
Perl are the two most good things in this world.

py-py,

I just got this link in a german newsgroup:

http://pywinauto.openqa.org/

Seems to be what I was looking for. Nevertheless feedback still welcome.
