I am interested in simulating human actions on other applications.  For
instance, there is a log file that can only be accessed through the GUI of a
program written in C++.  I do not know C++ so I want to be able to write
something in Java that will act like it opens the GUI, hit the tab for the
log, then do an Edit-Select All-Copy (after this paste it to Notepad).  Is
there any way of programming this in Java?  Thanks, in advance.
