A Python script to paste text from clipboard char by char (updated shortcut to backtick)

keyboard_pasta.py

import keyboard
import pyperclip
import time

def handle_press(event):
    # Retrieve clipboard text
    text = pyperclip.paste()
    if text:
        # A tiny delay prevents the OS from mixing the hotkey with the pasted text
        time.sleep(0.05)
        keyboard.write(text)

# suppress=True here is more likely to work when using the specific key hook
keyboard.on_press_key('`', handle_press, suppress=True)

print("Active. Press '`' to paste. Press 'Ctrl+Esc' to stop.")

# Changed to Ctrl+Esc to avoid potential conflicts with the backtick hook
keyboard.wait('ctrl+esc')
