If I understand you correctly, you're probably wanting something like
SendKeys:

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/SendKeys/0.3

Unfortunately, this is for Windows only (as far as I can tell). But
you didn't say what OS you were using, so maybe this will work.

What difference does it make if it includes a c file (it's not C++)?
Python itself relies on C code too for some of it's fastest bits. The
"xrange" builtin is one good example. Besides, I think learning C/C++
would be a good idea for any Python programmer that wants to get truly
proficient in his snake charming.

You definitely need SendKeys, and you definitely need to talk to
Windows through some C library. It doesn't matter which bridge you
use, but your code is going to touch something written in C eventually
to accomplish this.

Check out this example: http://code.activestate.com/recipes/65107/

The pywin32 libraries are pretty much a must if you're working in
Windows and Python regardless.
