Can I do X or Y or Z in Sikuli?

If you are wondering if Sikuli can do X or Y, there are few rules that may answer you.

• If you can do X with Java, you can also do it in Sikuli. For example, you can create a GUI with Java Swing, so you can do it in the same way in Sikuli.
• If you can do X with Python, you probably can do it in Sikuli as well. This actually depends on what Python modules you use. If the modules are written in pure Python, you can use them in Sikuli. If they are written in C, unfortunately, you can’t.
