What language for toy program.

Morgoth · 02-26-2005, 02:15 AM

I want to make a small program where when it is open and running it will keep clicking the left mouse button when the left mouse button is held down.
*edit*
I assume the clicking will be in a loop or a timer, but either way, I will need a timer to change the interval in the interface.
*/edit*

I don't know what programming language I should program this in where I can get the most help.

If I program this is c++ will there be many tutorials to help me with this type of program?

You'll most likely need to install a mouse hook to capture mouse events. This can be done in C++ and I think in VB as well. Or you can try a pre-built program like one that can be found at http://www.autohotkey.com/ to see if that will do what you need.
