OffTopic > [NIX] Sending hotkeys/switching workspaces

#113389 - Mrshlee - Wed Dec 27, 2006 7:40 am

I want to setup a series of virtual desktops/workspaces.

You can normally change between these using the handy alt+cltr+right hotkey.

but I want to do it automatically every 10 seconds!!

I want to use Compiz to use the pretty cubes..

Any ideas on how to send the switch vdesktop hotkey/spin the cube automatically every 10 seconds?

any ideas?

Sending keypresses to the keyboard buffer..
sending commands to the X
sending dbus system commands to Compiz

any idea?
