Thanks, unfortunately ydotool has removed their sleep command stating ‘this should be your shell’s job’. I tried using the standard shell sleep command and used the semicolon to chain commands. Maybe thats not how to use the command field of the custom shortcut.
That seems to have worked better, I can now run ydotool commands in terminal. Will a user level service have any specific limitations?
When use this command as a custom keyboard shortcut:
ydotool type abcde12345
It will miss the first few characters and type:
de12345
When I try chaining shell commands to pause and wait before typing, it doesn’t work at all:
sleep 2; ydotool type abcde12345
Any ideas on how I could automate ydotool as a keyboard hotkey? Custom shortcut to run a bash script maybe?
Thanks for the reply Hades, the output of that command is:

say T10 one more time, i’m about to ejaculate!
your self-obsession is oozing out of your words, my phone feels a little greasy. being proud of any ‘master of business administration’ under capitalism, is in my mind like saying you are a ‘master of efficient selfishness’. you are higly trained at making a MES! why not master of public service administration?
Got one word for ya mate: Paragraphs.
They’re a goddam modern marvel and heaven-sent if you ask me.
Good day sir.
In this metaphor, the tide actually rises. Trickle down theory is a promise that never materialises.
I think it has something to do with the person needing something other than a human relationship. Its like those lifesize dolls that some guys are into. They meet needs that are different to a human relationship.
Signs of the weakening magnetic field, not good.
Yeah I’m not saying its right or wrong, only that I can understand why some people defend it and its impact can’t be ignored.
Maybe, but:
BJJ used to be my method of meditation and focus. Rolling with eyes closed, feeling the situation. Its hard to be distracted when someone much bigger is lying on top of you! Tends to sharpen ones focus.
I play piano. I don’t practice, I play. I play to hear the pleasing sounds, not to ‘get better’ although a byproduct of playing regularly is improvement. When I’m playing, the whole world is tuned out, I see the keys but my mind is focused on the sounds and tonal intervals . I make a lot of mistakes but am nuetral towards them, I simply play parts again and again until it sounds ‘right’ and I enjoy the process of finding the right notes. I don’t read any music or play covers, I just pick a key and use the circle of fifths to improvise melodies and chord progressions into something meaningful and pleasing to my ears.
Might be a controversial take but it’s my experience: psychedelics. Dramatically improved my self and general awareness, feel way more connected to existence and the rest is history.
The trick is:
This worked for me:
bash -c "sleep 2 && ydotool type abcde12345"Thank you! I couldn’t find any good instructions for the Command field of custom keyboard shortcuts.
