Sending keyboard commands?

Monty

Using Linux Mint 19.1 Cinnamon flavor. Looking for something I can use with my Alexa devices to control/send keyboard commands to the Linux PC.

For example, I would like to say something like:

"Alexa, trigger workspaces on the PC"

and that would send the CTRL-ALT-Up Arrow (or any other desired keyboard combination I choose) to the PC.

Can this, or something close, be done with triggercmd?

Thanks!

Monty

@monty, have you tried xdotool?
