A xdotool script to insert Tab in 600 lines. Just an example for future me. I don't remember where I used this script.
Raw
xdoscript.sh
#!/bin/bash
WID=`xdotool search --title "Chromium" | head -1`
xdotool windowfocus $WID
for i in {1..600}
do
xdotool key Tab
xdotool key Enter
sleep 4
done

I think it was probably on a very shitty website which required me to repeatedly press Enter Tab and I couldn't do it quickly because of a crappy animation so that's why I added that sleep 4.
