1. Jailbreak ur Kindle ( http://yifan.lu/p/kindle-jailbreak )
2. Install Launchpad ( https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=97636 )
3. Edit "launchpad.ini" in newly created directory "launchpad" on kindle like so:

To send a "Five-way press" keystroke (which was what I required) I added a line that reads:

Z = #'k3_FW_Press'

(this is for Kindle 3, for other versions and other keystrokes look in "keydefs.ini.default" in the same directory)

4. Restart ur kindle
5. Hail the creators/coders of the Jailbreak and the Launchpad proggies!

Now everytime I press Shift followed by z, my kindle believes I pressed the Enter button!
