Hi,
I'm new to the Ruby programming language and have a question. Hope this
is the right list. Here is my problem.
I need to generate a keypress for some keycodes, namely 146, 153, 162,
163. These are used to controll my media player and I would like to be
able to generate them in my Ruby program/script. Can someone point me
in the right direction for how to mimic this keypress? I've been
searching for the last 3 hours without success.

Regards.
