not sure what the best method to achieve this is (shell, automator, AppleScript or shortcuts app) but ...
I have this program that needs to be manually run and I want to have a function of the app run automaticly everytime I login. I have no experience with AppleScrit, shells scripts, I have used Automator a few times for stuff. I lost a lot of my knowledge from a bad head injury so any help would be great.
Details: When I login to my account I want to either (1) have a keyboard shortcut automatically run (2) have the function inside the app run, which might be more complex to achieve.

The applescript code to use the Command Key and down arrow combination would be something like this:

Code: 
tell application "System Events"

    key code 125 using command down

end tell
