I also give a dig to find packages in Python and mouse/keyboard simulation tools compatible with Wayland which work in terminal and I found python-uinput which works for simulation of keyboard but not to simulate mouse, and ydotool which gave me error. Now I would like to know how Wayland manages the automation of mouse and keyboard opposed to X11/XOrg in order to develop any script in Python or other language to automate input devices, I don't have any knowledge of the differences from XOrg and Wayland and I fell in this study because the need to automate Wayland.<br> <br> <br> Thanks in advance,<br> <br> Victor </div> </div> </body> </html>
