Combos use xdotool keysym notation: key names joined with +. The guest agent holds combos to a strict charset (letters, digits, underscore and +), so anything else is rejected with a 400 before it can reach the display.

Common keysyms: Return, Tab, Escape, BackSpace, Delete, Home, End, Page_Up, Page_Down, F1F12, and the ctrl, alt, shift, super modifiers.

To produce text instead of pressing keys, use fuse computer type.
