README.md

Script to send your clipbroad content to android input on macOS/Linux,

Based on great tiny tool ADBKeyBoard

You can get the app from F-Droid.

Also, if you want to use this script as a command, just copy it to ~/bin/adbpaste then add it to $PATH:

echo 'export PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc && source ~/.zshrc
