It is not clear to me either --- I am non really a programmer --- but
I think I am talking about the system-wide event queue, or whatever it
is called this thing that constantly monitors the mouse movements and
sends the appropriate signals to the frontmost applications...  I am
not talking about anything Tk specific anyway; the fake mouse clicks
I know from KeyQuencer under OS9 can be sent to any graphical 
application.  Yes, I guess these are such high-level-events-aware 
applications, and that the signal should be sent as an AppleEvent...
Well, perhaps the signal is not sent to the application but rather
to the system, which in turn tells the application, just as if the
user had pressed the mouse button...

If some sort of AppleEvent-sniffer exists (and is not too difficult
to use), perhaps I could investigate what KeyQuencer does, and arrive
at some more concrete questions...  Under OSX it seems to me that
YoupiKey can do something similar to what KeyQuencer does under OS9...

Thanks again,
Joachim.
