I do this in AutoSync. It's very easy. You almost answered your own
question "just like pressing the button on the cradle" ;-)
Add a key event with hardCradleChr (in ui/Chars.h) with the command key
modifier.
------
EventType newEvent;
newEvent.eType = keyDownEvent;
newEvent.data.keyDown.chr = hardCradleChr;
newEvent.data.keyDown.modifiers = commandKeyMask;
EvtAddEventToQueue (&newEvent);

How can I make my app fire the HotSync (just like pressing the button on
the
cradle)?
