autopy.key.type_string() doesn't properly type SHIFT-modified characters (i.e. ":_+{})

Just started using autopy to automate using a 3rd-party Java GUI application.
It's a nice module that pretty much does what I need it to.
It works well for my needs. However, I have found an issue:
autopy.key.type_string() doesn't seem to properly handle characters that would normally require a SHIFT key modifier. I fixed this by making my own "type_string" functionality by wrapping autopy.key.tap() in a for key in string: loop with a if statement to add the shift key modifier.
It'd be great if I didn't have to, or at the very least... clarify that it doesn't work that way in the documentation.
I'm having the same issue and it is documented in the issues multiple times.
Could you maybe share your type_string function to mitigate the issue? Thanks.
This should be fixed now in the latest version of AutoPy.
