Scripts that simulate typing the clipboard contents. Useful when pasting is not allowed.

It "types" the contents of the clipboard.

Why can't you just paste the contents you ask? Sometimes pasting just doesn't work.

  • One example is in system password fields on OSX.
  • Sometimes you're working in a VM and the clipboard isn't shared.
  • Other times you're working via Remote Desktop and again, the clipboard doesn't work in password boxes such as the system login prompts.
  • Connected via RDP and clipboard sharing is disabled and so is mounting of local drives. If the system doesn't have internet access there's no easy way to get things like payloads or Powershell scripts onto it... until now.

Windows

The Windows version is written in AutoHotKey and easily compiles to an executable. It's a single line script that maps Ctrl-Shift-V to type the clipboard.

Install Parallels version 10/11/12/13 tools on Ubuntu server guest.

Install OSX Parallels version 10/11/12/13 tools on Ubuntu server guest

Have tested these instructions successfully under Ubuntu 16.04LTS and 14.04LTS.

  • Create Ubuntu server instance under Parallels (obviously).
  • Start VM, goto Actions - Install Parallels Tools... to mount the ISO image.
    • Note: if this fails, or updating tools for an existing guest you can do the following:
    • Goto Devices > CD/DVD 1 > Connect Image....
    • Select the following ISO image: /Applications/Parallels Desktop/Contents/Resources/Tools/prl-tools-lin.iso.
    • This will mount the tools CD image.
