Sending Keystrokes with Alarms

Use these codes to send keystrokes to applications at a predetermined time. This only applies to the Reminder Alarms.

The plus sign (+), caret (^), percent sign (%), tilde (~), and parentheses () have spe- cial meanings. To specify one of these characters, enclose it within braces ({}). For example, to specify the plus sign, use {+}. Brackets ([]) have no special meaning, but you must enclose them in braces. To specify brace characters, use {{} and {}}.

To specify characters that aren't displayed when you press a key, such as ENTER or TAB, and keys that represent actions rather than characters, use the codes shown below:
