If you're content to only have this available from the command line, you could assign the xtermcontrol commands to shortcut keys in your ~/.bashrc. E.g. to bind F1 to maximize and F2 to restore: bind '"\eOP":'$'"\201"'; bind -x $'"\201":xtermcontrol --maximize' bind '"\eOQ":'$'"\202"'; bind -x $'"\202":xtermcontrol --restore' You can't bind a shell command to a key that doesn't already feature in readline's map, so you have to translate the key (\eOP) into a non-existent key (\201) that is in its map, then bind the non- existent key to the command. > Thanks a lot for your help.
