Won't be easy - a toolkit (like tkinter) will only cpature your mous
events that are directed towards it's own windows. You might be able to
convince your program to collect mouse-events outside for a short period
of time - like snapshot programs do - but that will reqiure pretty
complicated, OS-dependant coding. Certainly way more complicated than
loading an image using tkinter. Better tell us what's giving you a hard
time there.
