IntelliType

Automate the typing process

The goal of IntelliType is to help you automate text-based processes. Create your script and see how it is executed. Then make a recording for example with a program of your choice, without having to start all over again

Getting Started

Installation

To get started

1. install python >=3
2. install pip
3. pip install IntelliType

Usage

$>itt scirpt.yaml

The script

About YAML syntax for scripts

Script files use YAML syntax, and must have either a .yml or .yaml file extension. If you're new to YAML, see Learn YAML in five minutes.

scene

scene defines which program should be executed and allows to prepare a waiting time before the action starts

sections

sections defines what should be automated. You define your section names in a YAML-list, you can define them as you like! Each section defines control properties of the automation process. You can control the process with the following properties:

• keypseed: Controls the typing speed. Allowed values are Fast, MEDIUM, SLOW, HUMAN or a TIME.
• Text: The text to enter. In Yaml you can force line breaks with "|".
• cmd: Write a text with line break
• ctrl: Trigger control keys. For example Ctrl+c, ESC, Ctrl+Shift+t
• wait: Wait before the next section is executed

Sample

scene:
  program: open -a Terminal "`pwd`"
  wait: 13s
  countdown: true
sections:
  initial_vi:
    - keyspeed: MEDIUM
    - cmd: vi IntelliType.cpp
    - ctrl: i
  write_lorem_ipsum:
    - keyspeed: FAST
    - text: |
        #include <iostream>
        using namespace std;
        int main(int argc,char**argv){
        std::cout<<"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr,";
        std::cout<<"sed diam nonumy eirmod tempor invidunt ut";
        std::cout<<"labore et dolore magna aliquyam erat, sed diam voluptua. ";
        return 0;
        }
  close_vi:
    - ctrl: ESC
    - wait: 1s
    - cmd: ":q!"
