ISBoxer Quest Automation Help needed
Okay let me first say two things:
1. ISBoxer and Innerspace is FREAKING AWESOME. I ABSOLUTELY love it to death. It makes EVERYTHING easy.
2. If ISBoxer didn't come with a Wizard, I'd probably have given up a long time ago.
Now with that said, let me tell you my question. I have a team of 3 Orc Shaman on Lothar. I've set them up as a Team in ISBoxer, and I use Jamba (also a huge help, multiboxing is easy-mode with it). Having said that I have discovered that the only way I can automate quests is (with IWT key mapped to F1, lets say):
0. Walk my dudes near the quest giver.
1. Press the Mapped key to "Assist Me"
2. Press the Mapped key to start Repeating mode
3. Press the Mapped Key to IWT (F1)
4. Press the Mapped Key to stop Repeating mode
Then, if its a turn-in, I still have to close the window with repeater turned on via mouse.
I'm wondering if there is a way to go from steps 1-4 to a single keymap. I can't figure out why I need 1 (Assist Me) because when I target a mob, and click the 2 key (Lightning Bolt), I don't have to have them assist, they kind of do it automagically (FTL i suppose).
So why can't I use FTL with a quest giver NPC? It would cut out step 1.
Also if I could combine 2-4 into a "Start repeater, do IWT, close window, stop repeater" thing, that'd be awesome.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated. I have done the requisite searching on IWT and how its used with ISBoxer but haven't found what I need.

First, people on dual-boxing.com are going to flip out because you want to both "assist" and "interact with target" without "pressing multiple keys". IWT can't be put inside a WoW Macro, so basically the great Gods of dual-boxing.com will smite you for not sticking to "one key one action". For the record, I believe this is absolutely harmless and "one key one action" as interpreted by various dual-boxing.com members is nowhere near the ToS.
Did you know? World of Warcraft mitigates button mashing by using Global Cooldowns (GCD)! It's impossible to use two GCD Actions without a delay, which is impossible to create using ISBoxer. Any delays are purely based on your hands touching your input devices and affecting your available controls (which may not all be spring-loaded buttons).
All that said, you can make it Assist on button DOWN, and IWT on button UP, and then we're still talking about 2 operations for you to do 2 things in WoW. Or both of these things can happen in the same step since neither is affected by GCD.
So, make a Mapped Key with one or two steps, with 2 Actions:
1. a Do Mapped Key Action. Target is "Window: Current", Key Map is "General" and Mapped Key is "FTL Assist Me"
2. A Keystroke Action. Target is "Window: All w/ Current", Key Combination is F1 (because this is what you configured in WoW for IWT)
That's it. They can go in Step 1 in that order, or you can put one in Step 1 and one in Step 2. If you do 2 steps, you can set the "Execute a Step when the Hotkey is _____" to "pressed OR released" to do one Step when you press the button and one when you let go of the button.
