i need to automated a insertion of graphical text in some GIF file
using
Photoshop 6.

It might also be possible using prefab player.
"do menu menu item blah"
Only I seem to recall that you can't call the text tool as a menu item. (untested)
though if you ensured manually that the text tool was active you could :
click location (1,1)
type "blah blah"
Perhaps you could automate the text creation in illustrator or freehand and then cut/paste? or export and then open an eps in PS6 - then cut/paste into your gif? By using a bounding rectangle in your vector app of the same proportions as your gif with no fill or stroke you should be able to govern the text placement within the image area.
Applescript can then call a series of action scripts within PS6 to do the rest.

Just a possible workaround.
