Hiya,

  I'm working on a dos program, using allegro's keyboard routines.  I've
studied the example given by Shawn Hargreaves on getting input FROM the
keyboard, but I'd like to send a keycode from my program...Here's why:   I'd
like my dos program to be able to minimize itself to the win95 taskbar.  If you
type Alt+Esc, it minimizes itself very nicely.  So how can I get my program to
send the same signals as manually pressing Alt+Esc?

Thanks in advance...(and more later)
 -Jay D.
