Quirky issue

[Jerry Gaspard]

Anyone know of a way to write to the input buffer of another running
application?

Lets say I application A running and application B.
Application B's only purpose is to send certain commands(via keystrokes)
to application A.

Such as Control+s every 30 seconds.

Any help would be appriciated.

You can't.

It may be possible, on some platforms, using some extremely platform-
specific tricks. On other platforms, it may not be possible at all.

You'll need to ask a group specific to your platform.
