I would like to do this as well just to see how oddball keystrokes are labeled for use in AppleScript. That or a comprehensive list of how to type an F19 or fn + F6 etc.


I' aware of this set of values which may be used with the key code function


F1 , $7A , 122
F2 , $78 , 120
F3 , $63 , 99
F4 , $76 , 118
F5 , $60 , 96
F6 , $61 , 97
F7 , $62 , 98
F8 , $64 , 100
F9 , $65 , 101
F10 , $6D , 109
F11 , $67 , 103
F12 , $6F , 111
F13 , $69 , 105
F14 , $6B , 107
F16 , $71 , 113
F17 , $6A , 106

cf Full Key Codes at

http://softwares.bajram.com/utilities/#Full_Key_Codes

With keycodes, don't use keystroke "a" but use

key code 12

set theapp to "TextEdit"
tell application theapp to activate
tell application "System Events" to tell (first process whose title is theapp)
key code 12
end tell
