Injecting keystrokes into X from user apps

Hi -

Looking for a quick and dirty way to inject keystrokes into an X session from 
a user app running as a Daemon or in a console.

Found xtrapchar, which looked promising, but...

- -bash-2.05b# xtrapchar -d :0.0 h
Warning: Can't load DEC-XTRAP extension
xtrapchar: could not initialize XTrap extension

And the manpage says

DIAGNOSTICS

       X Toolkit Error: Can't load DEC-XTRAP extension

       The  XTrap  X server extension has not been linked into the specified X
       server.

Is this true, Fedora's X does not have the Xtrap stuff?  Why distribute the 
xtrap apps if that is the case?  And why do I see...

- -bash-2.05b# ll /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/

Any help/advice or alternatives gratefully received.
