Later versions of win32api have win32api.keybd_event()

The documentation for this is pretty sparse:
   keybd_event(bVk, bScan, dwFlags, dwExtraInfo)
   Simulate a keyboard event
   Parameters
     bVk : BYTE
         Virtual-key code
     bScan : BYTE
         Hardware scan code
     dwFlags=0 : DWORD
         Flags specifying various function options
     dwExtraInfo=0 : DWORD
         Additional data associated with keystroke

For more info, check out the function at msdn.microsoft.com

Mark.
