# Ghost Typing
Ghost typing can be used to launch Notepad++ with an auto-typing text. Use command line arguments -qn, -qt or -qf to trigger it.
This feature was used in the [Je suis Charlie edition](https://notepad-plus-plus.org/news/notepad-6.7.4-je-suis-charlie-edition.html), and its effect is one of controversial arguments. Some people did panic because of the unusual behaviour. However most of the time the true hackers try to keep a low profile. We are not in a Hollywood movie....
Enough blabla, here is the usage of Ghost typing:
###### Syntax:
notepad++.exe -qnEasterEggName
EasterEggName: the name of easter egg. Use %20 to replace space character.
notepad++.exe -qtText
Text: given text. Use %20 to replace space character.
notepad++.exe -qfContentFilePath
ContentFilePath: The path of file, absolute or relative. Use %20 to replace space character. The content of the file will be shown.
###### Samples:
* notepad++.exe -qnrandom
* notepad++.exe -qnBill%20Gates
* notepad++.exe -qtTest%20of%20ghost%20typing%20example.
* notepad++.exe -qfmyFile.txt
* notepad++.exe -qfC:\my%20folder\my%20poetries.txt
