Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/feschber/lan-mouse/issues/89

I have a virtual machine with windows, that often takes the place of my usual linux desktop. It would be nice if I could script the switching in lan-mouse. Being able to do something like lan-mouse --frontend cli deactivate 2 && lan-mouse --frontend cli activate 3 would make my life significantly easier.

@feschber commented on GitHub (Feb 24, 2024):

you should be able to do this already by just piping the commands into lan-mouse.
Something like

echo deactivate 0 | lan-mouse --frontend cli

works for me.

Certainly a good idea to have this functionality via cli args directly! I will add that to the list :)
