Making a clicker script click within a window?

[rschanke 0]

Hello guys. I know how to write a basic clicker, but how would I go about making it do so only within a specified window, so that I may safely leave it in the background without the clicks interfering with what I am doing?

Thank you

Try this out, I didn't write it and I don't remember where I found it but it works decent.
