New action -> multiple keys instead single key

For example, in Rox-Filer, a desktop manager (Gnome, Debian testing),
I manage keyboard shortcuts with single letter (i.e. ''s' for bookmarks menu, ...).
So if I want to go to the previous directory, the sequence is :
1x s
3x down
1x right
enter
and that's it !
With multiple keys in EasyStroke, one gesture and it's all.

NB : I use EasyStroke with mouse left hand configuration, no problem. Thank you for your new mapping.

    This is a great tool, but needs a place were people can discuss it. Put up examples, and answer 'how to' questions.
    Basically it needs a forum!!!!

    One comment was 'how to' send more individual special keys.. On way is to use a program like "xdotool" or "xte" to inject a input key sequence and text strings. These tools can also move the move to do some of the non-hot key actions too!

    However for each action there are probably good and bad solutions and it would be nice to lookup and discuss such solutions.

    Also how can you define a gesture to control the easystroke manager :-) It pops down so you can't select as the application to be effected!!!
