Hi

You can use xkeymouse (look on sourceforge) to fake such stuff. I am
currently rewriting xkeymouse and will rename it and move it. Xkeymouse
can fake motion/button/key and launch apps after having grabbed some
key/button.

If that does help you, try the new script input to Xnee. There are new
versions at
   www.sandklef.com/xnee/

I you want to fake from a lower layer (kernel) try swinput (look at
savannah.gnu.org).

I (the author of the three suggested program) do not look in this list
more than once a week so send an email to me (as well as the list) if
you have any question.
