Well all I'm trying to do right now is send a letter to another window to a get feel for it. This little snippet is trying to send a letter 'a' to window with ID of 0x1800002. Here's what I have right now: 
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;

use X11::Protocol;

my $x = X11::Protocol->new;

my %event = (
  name        => 'KeyPress',
  event        => 97,
  state        => 0,
  code        => 2,
  event_x    => 0,
  event_y    => 0,
  detail    => 0,
  same_screen    => 1,
  root        => $x->{'root'},
  child        => 'None',
  time        => 1029571004,
  root_x    => 0,
  root_y    => 0,
  sequence_number    => 0,
);

my $event_string = $x->pack_event(%event);
$x->SendEvent(0x1800002, 1, 0xfff, $event_string);
