My guess is that this program does not support applescript
or apple events.

You could probably use TCP/IP or IPC sockets

It seems very unlikely that this program supports TCP/IP either, and
couldn't possibly support IPC sockets.

Read quickly and probably misunderstood.
However, it seems you might be able to write and RB program for OS X and one for classic that talk. The one in Classic might be able to send keys via applescripts or something. Getting the results might be quite different unless the old program has some way to get results from it via applescript, file I/o, etc
