harinandan, hi,

you can always use the linux userspace uinput kernel module to simulate key
and mouse events, programmatically.  see the following:
http://lkcl.net/software/uinput/

this is a working example - you _will_ need to initialise both keyboard
_and_ mouse ioctls otherwise uinput refuses to work, inexplicably.  the
example shows moving the mouse cursor to the right by a small margin;
pressing the "a" key; releasing the "a" key and then reading the program's
stdin using getchar() to receive the "a" key.

l.

p.s. if you don't do the "release" then you get a stream of "a"s because,
well, duh, the key is being held down.
