--- Comment #9 from pgnd <p...@dev-mail.net> --- > Users specifying "Hello" as input seems more friendly than "Shift+H:E:L:L:O" couldn't agree more. that's what existed. and what we made do with. frequently, complex strings to be typed have to be 'assembled' _for_ the user, and assigned to a manageable key-chord. a PITA, but doable -- and deployable. it would be a great improvement to be able to 'enter' a string to be typed, simply by typing it -- not synthesizing it. e.g., 'simply' TEXT to type: [ p@s$w0rD_1 ] KEY COMBO: Ctrl-Meta-P or, TEXT to type: [ (tab)Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. (return)(return)Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. ] KEY COMBO: Ctrl-Shift-Meta-L and, when KEY-COMBO is played in active window (Konsole, LibreOffice, Firefox URL bar, etc etc), the TEXT would be typed, as input. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
