Change pose with a stroke of a key...

Hey guys just wondering if you could help me achive this, I'm tryin to come up with something that will allow me to change poses by striking different keys on the keyboard, preferabley numb keys from 0 to 9 atleast, why? you migh ask, well I'm tryin to come up with poses for a hockey goalie and the num keys would represent whch direction the goalie is tryin to save his goal from incoming pucks.
Let me know if something like that is possible we as many pointers as you can give.
Thank you!

You could do this using gestures. Just set up a bunch of gestures on the F1-F12 keys that trigger the animations you've made. This might not even require a script. However, I've seen gestures do stupid things if you start an animation that loops, like a pose, so instead, you may want to have your gestures send chat to an object by having a chat event in the gesture that chats on a high channel, ie /1000 saveleft or something. Then the script can deal with stopping the old animation when a new one is started.

Interesting idea, I'll give it a try.
