Some hotkeys introduced in Windows 7 are very userful for myself. For example, Windows + Left / Right / Up / Down
If you never try above hotkeys, try it on a Windows O/S, and you will know what would happen.
Long story short, I would like to resize my windows the the left/right window. What should I do?
(1) You have to install wmctrl package
sudo apt-get install wmctrl
(2) Open "System"-->"Preference"-->"Keyboard Shortcuts".
Bound Windows + Left to ==> wmctrl -r :ACTIVE: -b remove,maximized_vert,maximized_horz;wmctrl -r :ACTIVE: -e 0,0,20,1920,1150
Bound Windows + Right to ==> wmctrl -r :ACTIVE: -b remove,maximized_vert,maximized_horz;wmctrl -r :ACTIVE: -e 0,960,20,960,1150
To Maximize a windows:
Bound Windows + Up to ==> wmctrl -r :ACTIVE: -b remove,maximized_vert,maximized_horz;wmctrl -r :ACTIVE: -e 0,0,20,1925,1150
