Is it possible to...

-----------------------------------

Make turing actually perform specific key inputs?

So make turing actually type the letter T or symbol @?

I want to create a neat program but would require to know whether or not this is possible. Any idea's ladies and gentlemen? :P

I'm not sure what exactly you mean. In what sense?

var output : string := "Or rather this?"
for x : 1 .. length (output)
    put output (x) ..
    delay (100)
end for

um.....  do you mean for an input of the user output a random char?

if that is the case simple 
get input
 put randint cast it into a char forgot how to do that in turing...
but ya
and if you want each inputed letter to be entered as another char
then i think 26 if statements would work

for example

 if input='a'
then
input :='any other char you want'
end if

Sounds pretty illegal!
I don't know of any command that might help you steal other people's personal information (joking :D ).

If you are thinking of what I think you are thinking... then that is system specific, so no, Turing can't do that.. not directly.

Meh, thought so. Thanks Tony.

For the rest of you who assumed I don't know how to input text... just wow .. :P

I meant like creating a turing program which could run in the background and actually type out characters on it's own. Basic idea was to make a screen capturing program like Fraps. Didn't think it was possible but wanted to ask anyways. Guess my initial question was slightly confusing :)

Turing can't take screenshots outside of its own window either :P

And Fraps isn't really a screen capture program.. in a way that you can't make screencasts with it. Fraps hooks into either DirectX or OpenGL (or both? I don't remember the options available) and logs the render frames.
