A friend of mine has a very repetitive task that I think could be
simulated by a keyboard macro.  Basically, I would like to assign a
sequence of keystrokes to some F-key so that when he hits that key, the
sequence gets sent to the program he's running as if he actually typed
all those keystrokes (similar to what macro-maker does in the Mac
world).  Is there an easy way to do this?  Are there commercial,
shareware or freeware programs you could recommend?  Thanks for any help.
