fuse computer type

Type text into a desktop environment's focused window

fuse computer type <id> <text>...
fuse computer type fuse-task-1 hello world
fuse computer type fuse-task-1 "two  spaces preserved"

Text goes to whatever currently has focus — click an input field first. Multiple arguments are joined with single spaces, so quoting is only needed to preserve other whitespace. The text is delivered verbatim: shell metacharacters are typed, never interpreted, because the guest agent builds its input injection as an argv rather than a shell string.

To press keys rather than produce text (Enter, Tab, shortcuts), use fuse computer key.
