There are two ways to do this.

1) If you are writing a PM program, or running in an OS/2 VIO window, use a
JournalPlaybackHook routine to pump keystrokes into your app.  This will
probably not work for a full screen OS/2 session.

2) If using an OS/2 full screen session, use a keyboard device monitor, and
insert the relevent information into the device chain.  This does not work
from the OS/2 desktop, it must be a full screen app.

Both of these are decribed in the OS/2 toolkit manuals, (1) in the PM
reference, and (2) in the virtual Device driver reference (I think).

Hope this helps,

Christian
