I'd like to find a gnome-only alternative tool.There already are keyboard shortcuts to do this. Desktop->Preferences->"Keyboard Shortcuts"Yes. I'm aware of that also. Still wanting a command-line tool."<shift><ctrl><alt><LftArr>" is 4 keystrokes. "gnome-switching-tool --switch-to-left-workspace\n" is 49 keystrokes. Me, I'll stick with the keyboard shortcuts.
But a shortcut cannot be built into a shell script or C program.
