Posting keyboard repeat events

Subject: Posting keyboard repeat events

Hi,

I've run through all archives I could think of, including Google code search, but found no answer...

My application need to send a key hold event to another app, say Front Row, to simulate "Cursor down" repeatedly. With a few quirks, CGEventCreateKeyboardEvent does a key down and a key up reliably, but I am stuck with simulating a "key hold", probably called "autorepeat". There is a key "kCGKeyboardEventAutorepeat" available, but I can't get it to work.

Has anyone accomplished this?

Please note: sending key down/key up very fast is different from holding down a key.


Thank you very much in advance,

Robert
