I have a semi-odd question. Without a SDK, is it possible to pull data from a program just from the fact that it is sending it? A good example are the programs that automatically read your poker cards from internet-streaming executables (such as PokerStars.com). To my knowledge, PokerStars doesn't have a way for another program to interpret the hands. I was wondering how this was possible. I don't need a detailed explaination (I can research thank you :) ) But I never understood how this worked. Thanks.

The data exists in memory somewhere...
