Are there any macro or scripting tools that will let me pull down a menu,
go over to a hierarchial menu and select it? I've been trying to automate 
some things with Easy Alarms, and they allow for clicking in specific areas of
the screen but don't seem to be able to drag down a menu, and choose an item. 

I'm running System 7.01, moving to 7.1 sometime soon. 

Will QuickKeys do it for me? or are there better things out there? ftp-able
$hareware stuff much more appreciated than expensiveware options.

Failing that, is resediting in keyboard equivalents for these 
commands possible? Which resources should I be looking for?

Email would be preferred, I'll be happy to summarize if people want.

Thanks in advance,
Hiroki
