Check out the Accessibility API for an example of how to do this.

That'll work but you'll need to either have the app 'blessed' to use the Accessibility APIs, which can be a pain, or you'll need to have the user explicitly allow access through the control panel.

You can use CGPostKeyboardEvent to jam a Command-P into the event stream though and that'll trigger a Paste in the target app. Assuming you've made sure target app is key first.

Hope that helps, Guy _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
