Obtain Active window using Python

by

On windows, you can use the python for windows extensions (http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/):

from win32gui import GetWindowText, GetForegroundWindow
print GetWindowText(GetForegroundWindow())

Below code is for python 3:

from win32gui import GetWindowText, GetForegroundWindow
print(GetWindowText(GetForegroundWindow()))
