Peter,
You can do this in OS 5 by registering for the sysNotifyEventDequeuedEvent.  If you do 
that, note that in your callback, all the event data will need to be byte-swapped.  
Pre OS 5, you can set your own trap for the functions that you need info on.

Hope this helps.

Subject: Recording stylus and keystroke actions.


Is it possible for an application to respond to any:

(a) stylus tap on the screen, that is, record the x/y coords.
(b) keystroke entry into text boxes.
(c) determine what application is being launched.

That sort of thing. The app I need to do will run in background and 
intercept the stylus and text entry events.

I suppose a keystroke selection or write operation on the grafitti area 
can be distinguished as text and not as a series of tap event coordinates?

The reason I want to do this is to record the user actions into a file 
and then later play the contents back? Playing back is not a problem, 
it's being able to record the inputs that I need to explore.

Thanks.
