Fwd: [PD] Sending a Keystroke from PD?

[Ryan Supak]

Yes, Python can do this.

Just wanted to be sure there wasn't a way to do it natively in PD...or with
a single object such as [hid].

The benefits of using Ableton Live for what I do, unfortunately, greatly
outweigh the minor added trouble in automating certain processes ;)

Thanks
