print('The current pointer position is {0}'.format(
    mouse.position))

# Set pointer position
mouse.position = (100, 200)
print('Now we have moved it to {0}'.format(
    mouse.position))

# Move pointer relative to current position-
mouse.move(5, -5)
sleep(10)
# Press and release
mouse.press(Button.left)
mouse.release(Button.left)

import subprocess
p = subprocess.Popen([r"/Volumes/Firefox/Firefox.app", "http://www.google.com"])
