Out of curiosity, why?

But then again, you're loosing the benefit X selections have over gpm.
You could instead use xdootol.

#!/bin/sh
xdotool type --clearmodifiers $(
        echo -n 'String '
        xclip -o
)

Remove '--clearmodifiers' to get inverse case using capslock,
alternative characters using shift3, etc.
