# dotool
dotool reads actions from stdin and simulates keyboard/mouse input using
Linux's uinput module. It works system-wide, including in X11, Wayland
and TTYs.
## Install From Source
With `go`, `libxkbcommon-dev` and `scdoc` installed, run:
./build.sh && sudo ./build.sh install
And to trigger the udev rule, run:
sudo udevadm control --reload && sudo udevadm trigger
## Usage
See the [manpage](doc/dotool.1.scd).
