command linemaximizedunitywindow
When I open a terminal using CTRL+ALT+T in Unity, I would like this window to be automatically maximized, rather than to have to additionally hit ALT+SPACE and the 'X' key to make the window that contains it maximized.
If my memory serves me right, I do remember that there used to be a maximize mode that we can set in preferences, but I can't seem to find it now. Any ideas?
Use following on the top of your expect script:
#trap sigwinch and pass it to the child we spawned
trap {
set rows [stty rows]
set cols [stty columns]
stty rows $rows columns $cols < $spawn_out(slave,name)
} WINCH
Are you actually using Numpad 0-9 in those keyboard shortcuts?
This is a numpad
The row of numbers of above the QWERTY keys will not work.
In future releases of Ubuntu (like 12.04) you will be able to tile windows using Ctrl-Super-↑, Ctrl-Super-←, and Ctrl-Super-→.

You can use the Compiz Window Rules plugin for this.
Make sure you have the CompizConfig Settings Manager installed
and run it.
Then, enable the Window Rules plugin:
and set it so that windows with the class
Gnome-terminalare matched:If you're using a different terminal, use the + button to build up a match expression for your terminal.
If you'd like your terminal to be fullscreen instead, you can use the appropriate rule in the plugin's config dialog.
In newer versions of Ubuntu (definitely in 16.04) you need to have
compiz-pluginsinstalled package to access Window Rules.If you don't have it you need to install it with
sudo apt install compiz-pluginsand reboot.
