It looks like Microsoft has deprecated the keybd_event API and suggests using
SendInput() instead.
Below is a sample of what needs to be sent. This is a C++ example. How do I
send this from Rev in Windows? It looks similar to what I do with AppleScript
on the Mac? While the send...as applescript commands are documented in Rev's
dictionary I don't see anything similar for Windows APIs.
INPUT inp[2];
memset(inp,0,sizeof(INPUT));
inp[0].type = INPUT_KEYBOARD;
inp[0].ki.dwFlags = KEYEVENTF_UNICODE; // to avoid shift, and so on
inp[1] = inp[0];
inp[1].ki.dwFlags |= KEYEVENTF_KEYUP;
for (LPCTSTR p=str; *p; p++) {
inp[0].ki.wScan = inp[1].ki.wScan = *p;
SendInput(2, inp, sizeof(INPUT));
}
