Is there a command for the "Workspace Switcher"?

I just learned about "whereis" in terminal as a way to find a command to launch a given application. However, I still can't find (a way to find) the command to launch the "Workspace Switcher" in natty / unity.

I'd be interested in both the method(s) for finding the command as well as the command itself.

There isn't a command for absolutely everything. But in this case, "Workspace switcher" can be triggered with a keyboard shortcut (super+s) which can also be sent using a tool called "xdotool", via the command line.

So install xdotool:

sudo apt-get install xdotool

And then you can trigger the Workspace Switcher from a terminal using:

xdotool key super+s

CompizConfig Settings Manager > Expo plugin > Expo key

wow, after all this time... was it really THAT simple ?

;-D
