Background/Foreground Key handler

Allows a developer the ability using the C# stack the ability of sending background keypresses and mouse events to any process.

This is useful for any type of automation, or testing.  Although it's original roots come from being the key input handler for a botting program for the Aion online MMORPG.  Since then it has been tested with many more applications and proven to be a solid library for background input events.

Demo added that shows this process working on the standard Notepad application, which only accepts Foreground input.  Use notepad++ or another application to test background key presses.

PostMessage and SendMessage
=======
How to send background keypresses.
--------

Hello, This I feel is something that is completely misunderstood by most people so i thought i’d drop a knowledge bomb.
PostMessage and SendMessage are two c/c++ functions that allow for a programmer to access Win32 API messaging.
The parameters required for these messages are `hWnd`, `wMsg`, `wParam`, `lParam`.

Details:
---------
`hWnd`: This is the handle to the window that you wish to send a message to in this case that will be the aion.bin mainwindowhandle.
`wMsg`: This is the message that you plan on sending, generally to impersonate key presses you’ll need to send multiple messages, below is a simple list.

```cs
KEY_DOWN = (0x0100),  
KEY_UP = (0x0101),  
VM_CHAR = (0x0102),  
SYSKEYDOWN = (0x0104),  
SYSKEYUP = (0x0105),  
SYSCHAR = (0x0106),  
LBUTTONDOWN = (0x201), //Left mousebutton down  
LBUTTONUP = (0x202),  //Left mousebutton up   
LBUTTONDBLCLK = (0x203), //Left mousebutton doubleclick 
RBUTTONDOWN = (0x204), //Right mousebutton down  
RBUTTONUP = (0x205),   //Right mousebutton up  
RBUTTONDBLCLK = (0x206) //Right mousebutton doubleclick  
```

`wParam`: Quite simply this for key pressing is the Virtual Key Code of the key you want to press. A list can be found http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms645540(VS.85).aspx.

`lParam`: This is a structure and is quite complex. Since we are simply dealing with keypresses messaging this simplifies the lParam quite a bit.

Here is the bit mapping for the 32-bit `lParam`:  
`0-15`  Specifies the repeat count. The value is the number of times the keystroke is repeated as a result of the user holding down the key. The repeat count is always one for a WM_KEYUP message.  
`16-23`  Specifies the scan code. The value depends on the original equipment manufacturer (OEM).  
`24`  Specifies whether the key is an extended key, such as the right-hand ALT and CTRL keys that appear on an enhanced 101- or 102-key keyboard. The value is 1 if it is an extended key; otherwise, it is 0.  
`25-28`  Reserved; do not use.  
`29`  Specifies the context code. The value is always 0 for a WM_KEYUP message.  
`30`  Specifies the previous key state. The value is always 1 for a WM_KEYUP message.  
`31`  Specifies the transition state. The value is always 1 for a WM_KEYUP message. Return Value

```cs
const uint MAPVK_VK_TO_VSC = 0x00;
const uint MAPVK_VSC_TO_VK = 0x01;
const uint MAPVK_VK_TO_CHAR = 0x02;
const uint MAPVK_VSC_TO_VK_EX = 0x03;
const uint MAPVK_VK_TO_VSC_EX = 0x04;
uint lParam = (uint)repeatCount;
uint scanCode = MapVirtualKey((uint)[One of the VM_KEYS], MAPVK_VK_TO_VSC_EX);
lParam += (uint)(scanCode * 0x10000);
lParam += (uint)((extended) * 0x1000000);
lParam += (uint)((contextCode * 2) * 0x10000000);
lParam += (uint)((previousState * 4) * 0x10000000);
lParam += (uint)((transitionState * 8) * 0x10000000);
return lParam;
```

Since you will need the Scan Code for the virtual key i recommend using http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms646306(VS.85).aspx function since it will make it easy. I hope this helps everyone.

Use Spy++ it comes with visual studio and enjoy.
