[Pythonmac-SIG] AESend and "Event Manager" events...

[Joseph J. Strout]

Hi Steve,

	No, you can't send keystrokes with AESend.  The only way to 
do what you want is to muck about with the Event Manager directly, 
but even this won't work if the app you want to send keystrokes to is 
not the frontmost application.

	A better solution (i.e., less work for you and more reliable) 
is to use something like KeyQuencer or QuickKeys or Akua Sweets (the 
latter is free) to fake the keypresses and mouseclicks you need.  The 
first two are apps which are scriptable, Akua Sweets is an 
Applescript extension library which implements commands for all sorts 
of amazingly handy things.

Cheers,
-- Joe
