From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Try:
xdotool keydown --delay 0ms i+j
Multiple keypresses can be chained with plus signs. (If you actually need the plus key, use the word "plus". Likewise, "alt", "ctrl" for those keys etc.)
The keys are still pressed in the order specified, but the
--delay
option changes the time between them. The manual page says the default is 12ms.If 0 doesn't work, try 1, etc. I only tested in a Terminal and a delay of 0 was fine there, but other software may differ.
That works perfectly! Tysm. Now I can roll down memory lane and enjoy tekken 3 properly haha.
