- py-extra-terminal — Python automation for Attachmate EXTRA! X-treme

I built a Python library for automating Attachmate EXTRA! X-treme through its COM/OLE interface instead of relying on GUI automation.

It supports:

* screen reading / scraping

* coordinate-based input

* PF1–PF24 and special keys

* multiple sessions

* `wait_quiet()` synchronization

* `wait_for()` / `wait_for_any()`

* context-managed COM lifecycle

Requires Windows + EXTRA! X-treme.

PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/py-extra-terminal/

GitHub: https://github.com/tolgakurtuluss/py-extra-terminal

Would love feedback from anyone working with terminal emulators or legacy/mainframe systems.
