Hi, I'm working with the ComputerContol Plugin, and want to use
PresskeyMBS to send keyboard macros.

On http://www.monkeybreadsoftware.net/remotecontrol-presskeymbs-method.shtml#7
It says the difference between press and pressraw is the up/down key
boolean and pressraw lacking the boolean based shift / control /
command / option modifiers

When I had first played with the demos provided with the
ComputerControl Plugin, I figured PresskeyMBS.press would work for 90%
of the application shortcuts out there,
but ultimately if possible I'd like to be able to send more than one
non-modifier key press at a time.

I noticed in the example it has:

p.charcode=0
p.keycode=&h38
p.pressraw true 'shift down

and

p.charcode=0
p.keycode=&h38
p.pressraw false 'shift up

For sending a shift press. Are there other keycodes for control /
command / option keys? I've looked into it with some cursory google
searches, I can't find any reference to using hex codes like in the
shift example...

I have seen with a third party app that tracks key codes, it has an
extra field called "Modifiers"
which will show this for a normal key press:
Modifiers:      256 / 0x100
vs
Modifiers:      131332 / 0x20104
for a shift key also being pressed.

I'm guessing this is the underlying mechanism that osx uses for
modifiers, is there a way that ComputerControl implements this?

Any information regarding this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Cameron McCormick
