Pasting sensitive info on X11

pasting-sensitive-info-x11.md

1. Install keyring using conda install keyring. Then put your sensitive info by entering keyring set system apass. In a key value pair, apass would be your key and your sensitive info would be your value. (You can change key name from apass to anything you like)
2. Install xdotool and xsel, and chmod u+x a script and put it into ~/.local/bin with the content:

#!/usr/bin/sh
xdotool type $(keyring get system apass | tr -d '\n')
xdotool key enter

The script types in the sensitive info and then hits enter key.

3. Call the script using a keyboard shortcut (with Gnome Settings app) directly using the script's name.
