Activating hot keys via telnet

[Theatre III Sound]

I think a nice addition to the telnet control of cues facility would be the ability to activate hot keys. In keeping with the format of other telnet commands, the syntax could be: scsKey("x"), where x is the key to be activated, which consists of the letters A-Z, the numbers 0-9, and the function keys F1-F12.

It would be fairly easy to add this feature but you can already achieve what you want just by using the cue number of the hotkey cue. For example, if you have a hotkey cue for key "A" and the cue number of the hotkey cue is "90" then you can activate it using scsGo("90"). It can also be helpful to label your hotkey cues to match the hotkeys, eg to make the cue number for this hotkey cue "HK A" or similar. Then you could send scsGo("HK A").
