title: Using "xbindkeys" and "xdotool" to set fullscreen on firefox 60.1.0esr
body: <p>My intention is to know if there is a way to set firefox-60.1.0 in fullscreen mode once it is opened to act as a kiosk, but using the <strong>Xbindkeys</strong> and <strong>Xdotool</strong> programs.</p>
  
  <p><em>Note: I've already performed some tests, that's why I changed a little bit the scope of the original question.</em> </p>
  
  <p>XBindKeys uses a configuration file <strong>.xbindkeysrc</strong> for binding keys.</p>
  
  <p>For example, I edited this file to set firefox in fullscreen mode by pressing <code>shift + f</code> keys combination. Then, this action activates the xdotool command to send the <code>F11</code> key to the browser only if firefox is already opened:</p>
  
  <pre><code># set firefox to fullscreen if opened
  "xdotool search --classname navigator key F11"
    shift + f
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The problem is that it only works on <strong>firefox 52.8.0esr</strong> but my target is <strong>firefox 60.1.0esr</strong> and later versions.</p>
  
  <p>So now, I´m wondering 2 things:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Will "xbindkeys" and "xdotool" programs be compatible with firefox-60.1.0 and later versions?.</li>
  <li>Are there any Xclients replacement that are compatible with firefox-60.1.0 and later versions?.</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Some other Xclients I have found are (but not tested so far):</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>xvkbd</li>
  <li>xkb</li>
  <li>xmodmap</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>..also other alternatives to xdotool such as autokey and more from these posts:</p>

  <p>Note: I´m using centos for testing this.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for your help!</p>
