- Simulate typing text:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`wtype "{{Hello World}}"`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Type a specific key:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`wtype -k {{Left}}`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Press a modifier:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`wtype -M {{shift|ctrl|...}}`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Release a modifier:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`wtype -m {{ctrl}}`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Wait between keystrokes (in milliseconds):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`wtype -d {{500}} -- "{{text}}"`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Read text from `stdin`:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`echo "{{text}}" | wtype -`
