"""Found myself needing to emulate key presses in an application on OS X.  The solution was the following:"""

import os

def press_key(key):
	cmd = "osascript -e 'tell application \"System Events\" to keystroke \"" + key + "\"'"
	os.system(cmd)

/*
	Example usage:
	
	var fj:FlickrJSON = new FlickrJSON(YOUR_API_KEY);
	fj.loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, YOUR_LOAD_COMPLETE_CALLBACK_FUNCTION);
	fj.doCall(FLICKR_API_METHOD_AS_STRING, {PARAM_1_NAME_AS_STRING : PARAM_1_VALUE_AS_STRING, ...});
	
	you will want to convert the response string that you get in your callback to a native Object.  To do this, simply use the
	static method FlickrJSON.objectFromResponse.

# to the console didn't. Here's the rake task from DHH's cache_digests project tree, updated
# for ActionView in Rails 4. Copy it to your project's lib/tasks directory as "cache_digests.rake"
