Hi everyone,

   I know that this isn't complete Ubuntu question, but....
   I am have quite a time of this project: I just want to have a shell
script simpley dump the contents of a text file into the keyboard buffer so
that it mimics keyboard input.
   I can't figure out what the device is in Ubuntu(Dapper) or I can't figure
out how to correctly send it to the appropriate device.

Can anyone help out?
Thanks,
Lee
