I was asked for a macro that “Types like a human”, and built this as an example, which seems useful to share.

Interesting. I was trying to figure out a use case for such a macro, and I guess if you were creating a video where a person is supposed to be typing, this would do the trick.
You just need to add one thing, Peter: The clicking sound a computer keyboard supposedly makes (many are silent these days).
Yes, I believe that was the use case. Automated production of the video behaviour.
I did similar things when I made the v9 release video - pretty much the entire thing was run by script, so I could adjust the behaviour and replay it until I was happy with the result.
Hey @peternlewis - amazing Macro my friend.
Question for you if that's ok?
For a new 'typed' (I'm guessing \n or \r) line, I'd want SHIFT+RETURN pressed, not just RETURN... any idea how to do this?
I've tried:
Thanks in advance!

In the “\n|\r” case, just change the Insert Text by Typing action to a Type a Keystroke action and type Shift-Return.
