Subject: [ruby-talk:10125] Capturing Screen, Moving mouse




Hello,

Is there a way to use Ruby to control a user's desktop?  I want to be
able to capture the user's desktop as an image (then convert it to a
jpeg/gif/png) and also have Ruby automatically control the user's
mouse pointer and click the mouse buttons as well (like producing a
demo).

This functionality was recently made available through Java's Robot
class, but I wanted to use Ruby instead.

I'm sorry if this question has already been asked-- please point me to
the right place.

Sincerely yours,

Norman Su
