2016-02-29 01:38:05 Lonnie Lee Best description I've seen certain phrases lock up autokey-gtk, and ultimately lock up your ability to type into any other application until the autokey python process is killed. Autokey should save my phrases exactly the way I type them, but behind the scenes it needs to do a better job escaping special characters or keywords, so that later, when it autokeys my phrases special words don't lock it up. Specifically, try making a phrase for "<script>" without quotes. Doing so will cause a lock-up when you try to autokey that phrase later. To reproduce this bug, simply do the following steps: 1) If you don't have autokey install, do this: sudo apt-get install autokey-gtk 2) Create a new phrase, by clicking the "New" button on the top-bar-panel then click "phrase" from the sub-menu. 3) Name the phrase anything you want ("test" without quotes will be fine). 4) For the phrase, type "<script>" (without quotes) into the text-box-control. 5) After this, click the "Set" button to create a hotkey combination, so that anytime you press that combination of keys autokey will type <script>. For example, I chose ctrl-alt-q as the hot combination. 6) Click the "Save" button on the top-bar-panel of autkey. 7) Open up a text editor (like gedit), and now hit the hot-key-combination you created in step 5. Expected result: Autokey should type "<script>" (without quotes) into gedit. Actual result: Autokey not only locks up itself, but it also locks up your ability to type anywhere else until you actually kill the autokey python process that is running autokey. I have a lot of html templates that I use autokey to insert into code-editors and such. Many of these templates have <script></script> tags in them. Each time I try to autokey phrases containing "<script>", Autokey locks up with the behavior I've described.
