can be done, but maybe in a OS specific way, if widespread toolkit does not exist (toolkit are libs, we can use them)

Getting pixel information is a basic task related to "accessibility", "testing", and just "getting things done". Thats what programming is for in the first place. Its not a security problem if your are the owner of the computer, and that is what you want to do. If a particular language can not do the task, it should be put in its ignore list. The task should not be modified to fit that language. —[[User:tinku99|tinku99]]
 
: I believe every lang able to use OS API should be able; this creates anyway a "strong" system dependency, unless one can achieve the task using portable toolkit; e.g. GTK (GDK exactly?) should make it possible, and the solution should work on every system with GTK...? (Maybe!) If a system allows the existence of a "snapshot" software (to take picture of the whole screen or of a particular window), then this task is not unsecure. --[[User:ShinTakezou|ShinTakezou]] 10:49, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
