    Keyboard executables?

    Has anyone ever seen executables for keyboard commands? I am looking for separate EXEs for the arrows and "enter" to test something out. I'm sure if I knew VB/C+ then it would be easy to do. Can somebody do this, or know where I can find something like this?

    I think this might be kind of what you're looing for:

    edit: here's another one that also controls winamp:

    I was looking for something similar because I wanted to create a shotcut to start my CD ripper/encoder and automatically encode the CD in the current drive.

    It allows you to create a shortcut to run any prorgram by pressing a single key. I have yet to test it because I'm still waiting for parts.

    It might be a bit of an overkill, but I haven't been able to find something simpler.

    Please post if you find something better.

    I think you misunderstood, you have it the opposite of what I really want. I need programs that act like key-presses, not key-presses that activate programs. I only need the arrow buttons and the "enter" key, so when you click on enter.exe it emulates a keyboard having the "enter" key pressed. I know it can be done!

    I see. Sounds like a script then? Take a look at AutoIt, my favorite for simple scripts.

    Eg:

    --- BEGIN AUTOIT CODE ---

    WinActivate,Opera - Izaram
    Send,{ENTER}

    ---- END AUTOIT CODE ----

    Then you compile it into enter.exe and you double-click on it and it sends an ENTER to Opera, after it's been activated.

    If you wanted it to just send ENTER then just remove the WinActivate line.

    Is that what you had in mind?
