How can I minimize/maximize windows in macOS from a Python script? On Windows, there's a win32 api (the ShowWindow() functon) that can do this. I'd like the macOS equivalent. I'd like to have a script be able to find a window from its title, then minimize or maximize it.



Is this possible? I assume I need to use pyobjc for this.






python macos pyobjc

The code is below: var Airtable = require('airtable'); var base = new Airtable(apiKey: 'YOUR_API_KEY').base('appAnZVyYqusNPV5Q'); base('Invitee list').select( // Selecting the first 3 records in Complete list: maxRecords: 3, view: "Complete list" ).eachPage(function page(records, fetchNextPage) // This function (`page`) will get called for each page of records. records.forEach(function(record) console.log('Retrieved', record.get('Email')); ); // To fetch the next page of records, call `fetchNextPage`. // If there are more records, `page` will get called again. // If there are no more records, `done` will get called. fetchNextPage(); , function done(err) if (err) console.error(err); return; ); node.js ...
