Has anyone seen software that does this? I reflexively reach for my mouse when I have repetitive but slightly-different commands or text-lines to type in, and of course it doesn't do what I want. I'm utterly ignorant of PC device drivers under DOS, so I'd have a hard time writing my own, but I'll settle even for some tips on how to go about it. Thanks, Mark.
