FAKEY
A Keyboard Phantom Typist
(C) COPYRIGHT 1986 by System Enhancement Associates; ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
FAKEY is used to fake sequences of keystrokes. It is especially useful in
batch files, where it can be used to "pre-load" input for programs. It is
faking it at the point where BIOS is called. It will not affect programs
that bypass BIOS for their input. FAKEY can fake keyboard input for almost
any program, except for some resident utilities.
FAKEY takes one or more arguments, separated by spaces. Each argument can be
any one of the following:
1) A text literal enclosed in quotes.
2) A decimal number, indicating the ASCII value of a character.
3) A hexadecimal number of up to four digits, preceeded by an ampersand.
4) A mnemonic value indicating a particular keystroke.
None of these are case sensitive, except literal text in quotes. Hex
digits, mnemonics, and so forth can be entered in any combination of upper
and lower case.
FAKEY is a very handy utility to have available. It can save a number of
keystrokes when loading a program such as Lotus 1-2-3.
