You don't get to pick who gets the characters, in most cases; the user does
that. You can use PostKeybdMessage() and/or keybd_event() to send key data.
Usually you want to just send it to whatever the currently focused window
is, not to a specific window (that's inconsistent with how the user
interface works), and that's very easy with either function.
