Description

Hi, after update, xdotool partialy don't work with xfce4-terminal (upgraded 0.6.3-3 -> 0.8.0-2). example Command: xdotool type --window "16777446" "hello" produces no error, but no output on desired window (with windowID 16777446). I tried it with urxvt and xterm terminal window and it works.

command : xdotool type "hello" works in actual active xfce4-terminal window (produces output).

commands: xdotool windowactivate "16777446";xdotool type --window "16777446" "hello" only activates desired window, but does not provide output

Xdotool didn't upgrade (version is 3.20160805.1) Xdotool usage is for me very important.
we discussed it also here: http://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?pid=43470#p43470 ToZ thinks, that it can be vte3 issue...

possible workaround is xdotool windowactivate 69206019; xdotool type --window getactivewindow "hello" but it slows down scripts and is not safe to use in parallel...

Sorry for my bad english. Thanks Martin

Version: 0.8.0
