If **--state** option is given, prints out state (running or stopped) type (private or shared) spice URI (if machine is running), mac and IP address. Pattern is shell-style wildcard which limits machines to be shown. Don't forget to quote pattern from shell. It should be expanded. **--usb** option lists USB devices connected to the virtual machine using **vws usb** command. | | | > > > > > > > > | | < | | | | < | | > | 365 366 367 368 369 370 371 372 373 374 375 376 377 378 379 380 381 382 383 384 385 386 387 388 389 390 391 392 393 394 395 396 397 398 399 400 401 402 403 404 405 406 407 408 409 410 411 412 413 414 415 | Lists available virtual machines.

It should be expanded. **--usb** option lists USB devices connected to the virtual machine using **vws usb** command. **vws sendkey** *machine* *keyspec*... Allows to send some key combination to the virtual machine. For example if windows screen is locked spice client is sometimes unable to deliver key stroke to the virtual machine in order to get it out of sleep. In this case **vws sendkey** *machine* **ctrl-alt-delete** helps. Each key combination should be passed to **vws sendkey** as separate argument. Not all ascii characters can be specified as arguments. I.e. it is not possible to determine whether colon should be send as shift-; See **KEY SPECS** below about format of key specification. Keys send via this command are subject of guest keyboard mapping. So, you can switch keyboard layout by sending switching key sequence and then send text on non-latin language. KEY SPECS ========= Following key names are avalable: ``` shift shift_r alt alt_r altgr altgr_r ctrl ctrl_r menu esc f1 f2 f3 f4 f5 f6 f7 f8 f9 f10 f11 f12 grave_accent 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 minus equal backslash backspace tab q w e r t y u i o p bracket_left bracket_right_ret a s d f g h j k l semicolon apostrophe z x c v b n m comma dot slash asterisk spc caps_lock num_lock scroll_lock kp_divide kp_multiply kp_subtract kp_add kp_enter kp_decimal sysrq kp_0 kp_1 kp_2 kp_3 kp_4 kp_5 kp_6 kp_7 kp_8 kp_9 less print home pgup pgdn end left up down right insert delete ``` Several key names can be joined together with '-' sign to form key with modificators sequence.
