How to simulate keyboard.../dev/tty0?

[Keeper]

Hi all,

I'm trying to send chars to the current console (currently having cursor
focus) - /dev/tty0 - in my program by:

char st = 'K', ri = 'L', ng = 'J'
int tty;

tty = open(">/dev/tty0", O_WRONLY);
ioctl(tty, TIOCSTI, &st);
ioctl(tty, TIOCSTI, &ri);
ioctl(tty, TIOCSTI, &ng);

I'm using redhat 9, kde.
Everything is ok in the linux console (on tty1 chars are sending
properly - KLJ...), but in kde i see strange things (and not only for
those characters):
^[[D- on ttyp1
- on mozilla window
My question is why chars are not properly sending by ioctl call, is
there any additional settings to do (setting termios, keyboard driver?)??

thanks,
Keeper

Your post is still off-topic in comp.lang.c and comp.lang.c++.

It still belongs in a Linux group.
