Auto Typist

I just finally finished Auto Typist. Basically, it takes some text that you specify in a config file and types it. You can download it here:

I used these in it:

Do let me know what you think! :)

Cool stuff, and glad to see someone found a use for the comm terminal (and thanks for the nod in the credits - much appreciated :)! Worked flawlessly for me on Ubuntu 10.04 - ran smoothly once I got pygame installed, and the config file is nicely structured and easy to use.

Might be a nice feature to be able to specify an alternate config file as a CLI arg, so that you can run separate documents at different points in a video, such as:

./auto-typist.py gameplay.json

./auto-typist.py editor.json

Thanks for the suggestion! I can't believe I didn't think of that, and it's so simple to add, too. I've uploaded a new version which adds this, same place. :)

EDIT: Another update. It turns out the positioning of the text was buggy.
