+xautomation contains tools to control the X server from the command line.
+
+The tools will be useful for scripting, and for doing "visual scraping"
+to find things on the screen. These programs allow scripted mouse movement,
+clicking, button up/down, key up/down, etc., and use the XTest extension.
+The visgrep program finds images inside of images and reports their coordinates.
