How can I send input to multiple terminal windows (not tabs)?

Question

I use gnome-terminal (Ubuntu 10.10). I like it, though I'd be willing to switch to another for this feature.

Can anyone tell me how I can broadcast keystrokes to multiple windows? The closest thing I've found is the "Terminator" program, which allows for broadcasting to multiple tabs, but not to multiple windows. Apparently a similar feature was removed from v3 of Konsole when it went to v4 (no idea why). There are also similar capabilities in screen, but not between windows, as far as I can tell.

I've spent a number of hours looking, but no joy.

I'd also be willing for a general solution (input to multiple windows of any kind) that I could adapt for use with terminal windows.

Thanks.

Try with a software called keyboardcast: apt-get install keyboardcast
