Accessibility Framework and Python (continued)

Iterating over the children of an accessible is trivial. The following code lists the currently running accessible applications:

for i in range(desktop.childCount):
    child = desktop.getChildAtIndex(i)
    print child.name
    child.unref()

If we have an accessible corresponding to an entry field, queryInterface() can be used to use the Accessibility::Text methods on it:

text = accessible.queryInterface('IDL:Accessible/Text:1.0')
print text.getText(0, text.characterCount)
