I'm sending keyboard and mouse events to a seperate windows application.

events get lost. Now I'v created my own WaitForInputIdle() which calls

From the Microsoft docs for WaitForInputIdle: "The WaitForInputIdle
function only works with GUI applications. If a console application calls
the function, it returns immediately, with no wait."
A typical Python script is a console application.

It would explain my problem.
Perhaps I could create a small windows application as interface..
I have to think about it ( and wait, as I currently don't have access to

Who says you have to create it with Visual C++? You could use Tkinter
or wxPython. Both are pretty easy to pick up and can look professional
with a little work.
