emerge -av x11-misc/xautomation xte --help it allows you to move mouse, click, send keypresses... finding the right coordinates to click might not be easy (although the package contains som programs that allow you to find specific pictures on screen...) but sending the correct tab and enter sequence should be enough (I expect just pressing enter in the dialog should be enough) you should be able to use this also with firefox send alt-f, p, few tabs to get to the "print to file", space, enter, name of the file, enter.... ;)) yoyo -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
