This article is about using journal hooks to write a simple Macro Recorder/Player. It's kinda different from the macro stuff seen in MS Office? products in that it works across applications. So you can record a macro, that opens a text file in Notepad, copies the address of a URL, opens IE, and navigates to the URL. Once recorded, you can play it back any number of times. All this stuff is possible because of the magic of journal hooks, which is a facility provided by Windows to record and playback keyboard and mouse events.
