I am in a situation where importing non-standard python libraries is not suitable. Is it possible to grab the pixel colour at a given location on the screen (x,y) using only the standard python (2.6) libraries in Windows?
On Windows this is possible since it’s possible to call a DLL using Python, see this posting. You then can call the same DLL as specified in this posting. Voila! The rest is just implementation … now if you had asked if this were possible in an OS independent manner I’d be inclined to say no, but you explicitly stated this is on Windows.
