Paul,


I am interested in simulating text input (maybe via generating keystrokes), but never found an example for that.

One example is redirecting input from a serial port to the active application. I tried to do it in the past, but didn't get it to work with Cocoa/ObjC, though I succeeded using RealBASIC. It was a "serial wedge" for barcode scanners. I used it for some time, before switching to a USB HID capable scanner.


Cheers,
Flavio
