I propose to clarify the task. In an operating system there can be many screens and many mice and other user output/input raster devices etc. Further under a properly designing operating system you just cannot access an arbitrary pixel on the screen for obvious security reasons. I suppose this task has rather something to do with a certain GUI framework, or, maybe, graphical system? How to get a pixel in X11, Windows API, .NET, OpenGL, GDK, GRAFOR ... infinite list? makes no sense to me. --Dmitry-kazakov 09:38, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
