Mapping and formatting input commands to a third party protocol

An apparatus, comprising:

• a processor configured to:
• identify at least one action as a predetermined command of a first computer operating language stored in the memory;
• map the predetermined command of the first computer operating language to a corresponding protocol command of a next generation computer operating language via at least one identified event;
• create a translation data file that identifies the predetermined command and the at least one event corresponding to the at least one action;
• parse information comprising at least one character string from the at least one action;
• store the parsed information in the translation data file;
• and
• execute the corresponding protocol command when the at least one event matches the predetermined command.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium configured to store instructions that when executed causes a processor to perform:

• identifying at least one action as a predetermined command of a first computer operating language stored in a memory;
• mapping the predetermined command of the first computer operating language to a corresponding protocol command of a next generation computer operating language via at least one identified event;
• creating a translation data file that identifies the predetermined command and the at least one event corresponding to the at least one action;
• parsing information comprising at least one character string from the at least one action;
• storing the parsed information in the translation data file;
• and
• executing the corresponding protocol command when the at least one event matches the predetermined command.
