Hi,
I don' t think pywinauto is the tool you need. It is aimed at GUI automation rather than command line. Generally there are easier ways to automate command line applications.
Thanks
Mark.
I feel the separation between HwndWrapper (and derived classes) and WindowSpecification objects is right (but maybe I can be convinced).
I also have problems understanding your problem fully.
Why not use ...?
app.dlg.ctrl.Wait('ready')
you can even do
ctrl = app.dlg.ctrl
ctrl.Wait('ready')
