macros VS ahk

If the hole is super wide but not too deep you can use macros to do some of the digging afk. I have found a Python macro that allows you to dig the 2 high base manually then afk 5 layers above that on https://github.com/JellyJoe198/macros/tree/master/ScreenGrab

Well. I author something similar, it's a bridge to use AHK from Python, but when it comes to this idea of a fully structured means of passing data between the two platforms that's something that this package implements.

There is a nice python wrapper[1], perhaps that could work for your uses?

Check out AutoHotkey (AHK) for simple Windows automation needs. There is a python wrapper: https://github.com/spyoungtech/ahk

There's pynput but that might have the same problem. If you're on Windows AutoHotkey is an awesome way to automate mouse and keyboard actions (but it's a different language than Python, although it seems someone has made a Python wrapper for it).

In this case, both seem reasonably active for a project like this. The latter (https://github.com/spyoungtech/ahk) seems more active and has more comprehensive docs.

I'm not sure how helpful it will be, but one of my projects does this. Most the tests are unittest.TestCase style, some of them are pytest style. All the tests are run just using pytest.

So, I author a Python ahk package that does this currently using IPC. The default model starts AHK and stops immediately for each command

Well, you can leverage AHK with a Python library. So, yes, Python can do everything AHK can do and more.

Anyhow. AHK's non-user-friendliness is also what motivated me to make a Python wrapper for AHK. So I TOTALLY get where you're coming from!

Maybe you'd like the python wrapper for AutoHotkey better.
