In what programming language can I do this?

[Lee Everett 612]

I want to create a script that runs in the background and clicks a certain part of the screen every x seconds.

 

- What is the best programming language to do this on Windows?

- What is the best programming language to do this on Linux?

Visual Basic .NET, although there is already a similiar tool available for free trial :

Alright thanks! I don't want to use a tool, just want to create it myself haha.

This is a strange question. Pretty much any language you like. So long as it has API to talk with your OS, you're set. So just pick a language you're comfortable with and go for it.

If you want to use the programm on both Windows and Linux Java could help. If you want high performance on one of that OS than C/C++.

I don't see why the first person who commented said VB.Net. This can be done with many, many languages. What language do you know? Let's start off from there.
