        ===============
        
        A small utility that simulates user typing to aid plaintext file transcription
        in limited environments
        
          Usage:
        
            transcribe <file> [--interval=<time>] [--pause=<time>]
        
            transcribe (--help | --version)
        
          Options:
        
            -i --interval=<time>  Interval between keystrokes (in seconds). Typing too
        
                                  quickly may break applications processing the
        
                                  keystrokes. [default: 0.1]
        
            -p --pause=<time>     How long the script should wait before starting (in
        
                                  seconds). Increase this if you need more time to enter
        
                                  the typing field. [default: 5]
        
        What it does
        ------------
        
        Sometimes you find yourself unable to copy text data into a field or application
        but with a keyboard you *could* type it all in by hand... what a hassle.
        
        Let this do tedious work and avoid typos.
        
        When you launch this script, you give it the location of a file and (optionally)
        a between-keystroke time interval to control the rate of typing. It will then ask
        you to press "Enter" when you are ready for it to begin typing. After a short
        pause (default is 5s), it will begin typing; use the pause time to enter the field
        for the text. To abort the typing in progress, click any mouse button.
        
        More information
        ----------------
        
        [docopt](https://github.com/docopt/docopt) is used for the commandline argument
        parsing. If you install by pip, this should install automatically if you do not
        already have it.
        
        FileTranscriber relies on [PyUserInput](https://github.com/SavinaRoja/PyUserInput),
        which is a python module for cross-platform simulation and tracking of user input.
        This should also install automatically with pip if you do not already have it.
        
        The dependencies for PyUserInput depend on your platform and will probably require
        manual installation, search for the versions appropriate for your computer and
        version of python:
        
          * Linux - Xlib
          * Mac - Quartz, AppKit
          * Windows - pywin32, pyHook
        
        If you experience any problems with the use of this script or PyUserInput, please
        let me know. I would also appreciate helpful suggestions for improvement.
