[Gambas-user] Finally Gambas got "SendKeys"

[Benoit Minisini]

Hi,

The last revision includes an "intelligent" implementation of 
Desktop.SendKeys, that allows to send any key to the window having the focus.

What is sent internally are keyboard codes, and so this method tries to map 
strings to this keycodes, by searching which modifier keys must apply to 
enter the key.

For example, on a french keyboard, sending "@" needs actually a press on a 
modifier key (ALT-GR, which of course does not have this name on X11, 
otherwise things would have been too simple...).

Well, this is why this function is "intelligent". I invite you to check this 
function or your own keyboard, especially if it not a french layout, and tell 
me the result...

Regards,
