[Xastir] Python

[Chip Griffin]

Is it possible to use Python, or some other development platform, to tap Xastir for information? For example I'd like to be able to write a script/app to keep track of my wife's APRS tracker and take action as appropriate. Perhaps then I'd have it light an LED when she's close to home. I have lots of ideas, but I need to know if I can do it that way or find a way to connect directly to an aprsis server.

Thanks,
