If you want to implement clipboard paste using text-to-type, then there is no work required at all in QEMU. That can be done in the VNC client simply by sending keystrokes. Even for something moderately short like a URL though this is quite painfully slow because you need a sleep between each keystroke to avoid overflowing the keyboard driver input buffers Regards, Daniel -- |: https://berrange.com -o- https://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange :| |: https://libvirt.org -o- https://fstop138.berrange.com :| |: https://entangle-photo.org -o- https://www.instagram.com/dberrange :|
