I have been converting midi into keystrokes with midiStroke for OS X
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/audio/midistroke.html
I think on windows people are using: http://www.midiox.com/
It would be great it pd could do this!
midiox program converts Keystrokes to MIDI Notes, it doesn't emulate keystrokes.
There might be a trick to do this with macosx API ,like I did with windows API in [winkey]?
PureData can do this on linux and now on windows with the help of different externals. I bet many users would love to have a single external for both platforms, that uses the same parameters, same help file, the object would have then the same name, it wouldn't be x11key anymore but [keystroke] or something like this and would work on most platforms. Aalex, what do you think?
Sounds like a great idea. How about something like [send_key] or [type_key]?
.hc
[send_key] sounds good, also I might have found how to do this on MAC OS X, by the use of sysctl.h, with looking at the source of some programs that emulates keystrokes, but I haven't got the machine for testing...
