[Tutor] Pyautogui clicking on a modal pop-up dialog

[Tim G.]

Hey Jim,
There's a simple way to do that just get a screenshot of the ok button,
crop it down to just the button and then put it in the parenthesis. It
should look like pyautogui.click("button.png")
You can find a sample in the docs here:
