Assuming you are running on a Mac+/SE and not a Mac II, you might want to
check out FadeKey. I believe that it was a freebee and it was written in the
olden days(can you believe I said that about the Mac?!?), but should still work.
It maybe be on SUMEX, if not I am sure that you can find it on CIS, GEnie,
or even you local users group/
