I am looking for a program that records keyboard and mouse event
sequences and makes it possible to run a recorded sequence when
needed. I am using Windows/386 at the moment, but I can switch to 
Windows/286 if necessary. I mean to use the (hypothetical) program 
with Micrografx Designer, to automate work.

I have heard of a program called Tempo - but I don't know anyone who
has managed to make it usable. This program is probably a port of the
Macintosh macro-utility.

Also, I would be happy to start with a keyboard-only emulator,
if such a beast can be made to work with Windows.

There is a rumor that the macro utility that comes with New Wave could
be made to run under Windows. True or (more likely) false?

Any info is welcome. Thanks in advance.
