Description

Lets Python programs communicate with the X Window System as full X clients. It helps desktop automation, window managers, testing tools, and graphical utilities inspect or control X11 windows and events.

Developers use it as a low-level desktop library. X11 clients can observe and influence other windows in the session, so only run trusted tools and be careful with automation on active desktops.
