Sending keystrokes to a window from shell.

[Bill Moseley <moseley@hank.org>]

I'm trying to control xmms from the command line.  I've got an X10
RemoteMouse and I can run commands by pushing buttons on the remote. 
For example, I currently have these keys mapped:

[CD]
Power   xmms&
Rew     xmms --rew
Play    xmms --play
Pause   xmms --play-pause
Stop    xmms --stop
FF      xmms --fwd
.VolUp  aumix -w +1
.VolDown        aumix -w -1
mute    aumix -w 0

But, I'd like more control.  For one thing I'd like to be able to skip
ahead and skip back within a song.

Now, the keybindings for xmms offer a lot more options.  So, I'm
wondering if there's something that would allow me to send a key to a
specific window in X.  That is, can I run something from the command
line to send a right arrow key to the xmms main window?

Otherwise, any other ideas?

Thanks,
