Simulate keyboard presses in mac terminal


I'm running some simulations which require manual keyboard input to change the parameters (annoyingly).

Is there a way to simulate keyboard presses, so that I can run the simulations with a bash script?


Solution

  • Turns out I could do from bash all along:

    ./program << ENDINPUT
    $input1
    $input2
    $input3
    ENDINPUT
