Simba is a program used to repeat certain (complicated) tasks. Typically these tasks involve using the mouse and keyboard. Simba is programmable, which means you can design your own logic and steps that Simba will follow, based upon certain input such as colors on the screen.
The scripting language used is Lape which uses a Pascal-like syntax.
