Type Text Workflow

[bigredjoe]

I threw together a simple workflow that types out the text you input into Alfred. Optionally, It will use the text in your clipboard if you hold down the function key when you run the workflow.

 

Here is where this has come in handy for me:

• Quickly typing the key code into a software registration form that won't let you paste text.
• Quickly typing text in a form box on a flash or java or javascript website that is preventing you from pasting text.

Would love to hear about any clever uses.

Updated with a delay between each character so that mixed case strings would type out properly.  I'm switching over from Quicksilver, and noticed that plugin had a delay - now I know why...
