How can I show Ubuntu Unity's Launcher panel through terminal?
I'm trying to bind a mouse button to this, showing the launcher. By "launcher" I mean the vertical panel with the "Home button". I would like to press this particular mouse button and it acts as if I had pressed the <Super> key; which is bound to show the launcher by default.
I've set xbindkeys properly already. I know I could use xdotool (or xte) to simulate a <Super> keypress event, but I'm not willing to do that. I would rather use a more direct solution. Couldn't find any Unity's interface to do that though. Does anyone?
Thanks in advance.
Did the trick with:
xdotool key alt+F1
