You should be careful with this, as "pasting" a huge amount of text will take a fairly long time, even with key-delay and key-hold set to 1. Once it's started, there isn't really a way to halt it.

While ydotool is typing, it wont care which window you're focused on, and will continue typing text even if you switch to a sensitive window, so be cautious!
