How to switch virtual desktop with the command line ?

Post by davidMint »

Im am using Lxde with Linux Mint.
I would like to know the command line to switch to a virtual desktop (I know the short cut).
This is because I want to write a simple script to launch different software at the same time but in different virtual desktop (for example, firefox in desktop 1, thunderbird in 2, Pcman in 3...).
Regards,

David
