wxwidgets detect mouse click on another window

Is it possible to detect a double click on another window in wxwidgets?

In my quest to switch to linux I wanna build a program that reacts to double click on the desktop and the file manager and displays a menu.

Same as listary does on Windows.

Is this something that can be done with wxwidgets (preferably wxpython) under linux? What about on Windows?

You can't receive mouse clicks, or any other events, for windows of another process unless you capture the mouse (and never release it, which would be a bad idea).

You can try to use FindWindow() and then Bind() the event handler.
