Hello,

I'm rather new to using REXX and can't seem to find what I need in the
online documentation.  I would like to start an application from REXX
and be able to send it characters as if they came from the keyboard.
Is this possible with REXX ?  Normally a program after it has started
waits for keyboard or mouse input.  I want to simulate this keyboard
I/O from REXX.  Any suggestions or hints on the feasibility of my need
would be greatly appreciated.

Monty
