Khalid Aldoseri wrote a NIFTY little program called Scripit which does all
of that kind of thing by using a script.  Anything you can do with a keyboard
and mouse and your fingers, Scripit can do from a script.  It includes an
ARexx port and all kinds of wonderful things.  It's really nice!

It's available on CompuServe in the AmigaTech forum.  Khalid lives in
Bahrain, and isn't on the net.  Hmmm...maybe I'll ask him if I could post
it for him.
