Has anyone discovered how to get System Events to
type keys such as <down arrow>?

This works for down arrow:

tell application "System Events"
set foo to ASCII character 31
keystroke foo
end tell


I figured this out by using the free app Keycode from
<http://www.folsch.de/english/software/keycode/index.htm>

I have no idea how portable that code is.
