Welcome to the Chainsaw Human Typing repository! This tool simulates human-like typing on a keyboard when you can’t, or don’t want to, paste directly. It's especially useful for simulating human typing in a video!
💻 Getting Started 🚀
| Supported OS | Build Status |
|---|---|
| Windows | Since 1.0.0 |
| Linux | Since 1.5.0 |
| MacOS | Not yet* |
| FreeBSD | Not yet |
Download one of the binaries from the releases page or build it yourself by cloning the repository and running:
python main.py*The app technically should work on MacOS, but we don't have any pre-built binaries for it yet.
⚙️ Usage 🛠
It’s very simple to use! Input the text you want to simulate, then hit "Start Typing". Your text will appear in the lower input field as it's typed out, with a progress bar to monitor the process.
🏗 Run from Source
Ensure you have Python 3.6+ installed. Install the dependencies:
pip install -r requirements.txtNavigate to the src folder and run:
python main.pyTo build the project, use PyInstaller. The build.ps1 script automates this for Windows:
.\build.ps1The output will be in the dist folder.
