Full screen window command from Linux terminal?
Reversed Terminal / Command line windowHow to create a new terminal window from the command line in Red Hat Linux 5.3Setting up a minimalist linux environmentLinux terminal single command resource usageTerminal window scrollback buffer using screen utilityGive mouse/keyboard/terminal/ctrl-c priority and stop programs from freezing my linux systemKali Linux terminal command troubleAutoHotkey - application loosing focus when enabling full screen modeHow to cancel a Ctrl-A in screenRun command after opening terminal window from script using bash
On Cinnamon, you can set a hotkey to force the active window into full screen mode; many programs have a full screen toggle built in. What I'm wondering is, what's the command that's being sent? How would you issue such a command in a terminal emulator to resize an application window so that it includes the space occupied by taskbars/panels?

Based on @dirkt's comment I went and had a look at wmctrl, which is a command line tool that let's you set these yourself. If you'd like to do things like toggle fullscreen for whatever programs you like from a shell script or any other custom place, this is ideal for that.
Here's an example that toggles fullscreen for the currently active window:
wmctrl -r ':ACTIVE:' -b toggle,fullscreen
For more details on what you can do with this see the man page and for some example see this tutorial.
