I need to get a handle to a Window and then move it to my secondary monitor. Is this doable with python 2.6, preferably using the standard libraries.

Python OpenCV – moveWindow() Function If we want to show image windows at a specific position moveWindow() function of OpenCV will do it. Parameters: window_name: name of the window which you want to move at particular position. x: Value of x coordinate.
Alt+Tab: Open task switcher. Windows+P: Will duplicate your screen/extend your desktop to an additional monitor. Windows+Shift+Left or Right Arrow: Move a window from one monitor to another.
Hold down the Shift key, then right-click on the appropriate application icon in the Windows taskbar. On the resulting pop-up, select the Move option. Begin pressing the arrow keys on your keyboard to move the invisible window from off-screen to on-screen.
Use the pywin32 module to access the native Win32 API. The functions you'll need to use are:
EnumWindows to enumerate all of the top-level windows in the system; search for the one you want and save off the window handleEnumDisplayMonitors to enumerate all of the monitors in the systemGetMonitorInfo to get the virtual display coordinates of a monitor and to determine whether or not each monitor is the primary monitorMoveWindow to move the window to the desired virtual display coordinates, using the window handle you found earlier
