Is there a way to send the switch windows signal without "Alt-Tab"?
Solution 1:
I got it to work. Turns out that I needed to put a pause between keydown alt and key tab. I also put the xdotool code in an .sh file so I could modify it without restarting xbindkeys every time.
Working xdotool code:
xdotool keydown alt
sleep .1
xdotool key Tab key alt
Solution 2:
xte works too, if you use it like
"xte 'keydown Alt_L' 'key Tab' 'keyup Alt_L'"
