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.
