Does anyone know how I can fake keypresses from say a C program? I`m
trying to control a resident program which responds to certain hot
keys (that is takes over control when these keys are hit and
eventually returns control) from my program.  What I would like to do
is from my program queue up a bunch of fake keypresses then let the
resident program run. Is there some way of doing this?

Thanks in advance
Gord
