I've been playing around with this crazy idea of sending input into Ed from another program. This would let me creat macros, etc. for use with Ed. (I know i could use ARexx and some other editors to do this better, probably, but I first thought of this about 2 years ago and the idea just wont go away.) How would I go about it? I can find open Ed windows on the screen. Would I just send his IDCMP some faked messages, or is it more complicated than that? I wish I'd never thought of this. _____ | Todd M.
