Hi -

I need to send a signal from a Matlab script on one computer to another computer, which the receiving computer will interpret as a key press.

Does anyone know of a simple solution to this?

Many thanks,


Arni

I do not know if this is the 'best' way to do this... but could you have the program where there is a keypress event to write a file to the other computer indicating some value or information. The other computer would have Matlab script running a timer which periodically calls an event to read that file for updated info and then perform some action?
