Autotype
Autotype is defined as a "true representation of the original" (see O.E.D). The term autotype was coined in the late 19th century and referred to a process for making photographic prints using a carbon process. Many autotype prints were produced and the process was popular well into the 20th century, particularly since autotype prints are very long lasting (it is said that an autotype could last up to 500 years without fading).

Autotype may also refer to halftone printing. The term may also apply to the Autotype Company, founded in London in 1868 as the "Autotype Fine Art Company", which was one of the pioneers in the carbon print and autotype reproduction process and which still exists as a supplier of coated films.[1] Autotype is now part of the Platform Speciality Products group of companies.
An autotype is a secret communication device used by the Allies during World War II. It transmits and receives a fluctuating electromagnetic frequency that cannot be intercepted. It was invented by Nikola Tesla.
Autotype Fine Art had itself been a successor to the Autotype Printing and Publishing Co. Ltd., which in 1868 had acquired the rights to Joseph Swan's invention of the carbon photographic process (British patent 503/1864). The new Autotype company of 1876 continued to exploit these rights by photographing works of art, by providing a processing service for photographers using the autotype (carbon) process under licence, and by manufacturing both the basic pigmented gelatine tissue and the transfer papers used in printing. By the time Swan's patent had expired, the company was firmly established under energetic management, with a sound technical and artistic reputation.
Example 2: The following, sent in by a user, clears the username field before username and passwordautotype begins. Non-empty username fields are very common. Some sites remember the username even when the user does not want it to or user forgets to clear the don't remember username and, because of browser cookies, it is remembered anyway, or if login fails for whatever reason on the first attempt the username would still remain. This autotype sequence is meant to ensure that the user doesn't have to clear the username field first.\t\s\u\t\p\n
Hey,I recently switched from KDE to GNOME (trying things out). In KDE, KeePassXC was configured with a shortcut for autotype and I could use that shortcut to fill in usernames, passwords and also ssh keyfile passwords from the terminal. But now, using GNOME and the GNOME terminal (because it matches the theme...) the shortcut does not work anymore. In every other application it works - just not in the terminal. Probably because the terminal will try to interpret the shortcut in the in the shell?! I tried to create a global shortcut, the problem is that XC doesn't has a command (as far as I know) to initialize AutoType (like normal KeePass). I couldn't find anything helpful on the internet. Does somebody know which setting could help?Greetings,Levin 041b061a72
