Simulate Mouse Click/Movement
alright.. so listen,
basically i wana make a program that will move the mouse and simulate mouse clicks. (like a macro program for linux)
BUT HOW DO I DO THIS, LIKE WHAT PRE-PROCESSOR FILES SHOULD I INCLUDE?
every example i've found includes "windows.h" which will obviously not help me on this platform.
i heard something about including an API but i have no idea
anything relevant is appreciated!

I don't know too much about whether or not there is such a function, but in the event there is it's probably desktop-environment specific. What desktop environment are you using? GNOME? KDE? XFCE?

Oh, well, turns out it's not environment specific! There are ways to simulate them at the XWindows level!
