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:
