How can I control the mouse by command-line ?

Hi,

Does anybody know if there is any command that I can use to control the mouse event, like: move cursor to some place, click, double-click, etc.?

Thank you!

ps. what I want to do is to bind keyboard to mouse, so that I can use keyboard to control the mouse, but I want to try some algorithms of controlling.

I'm not aware of mousekeys being configurable, but switch to it:

 alt-shift numlock

then try the number pad.

EDIT: Or were you looking for something an easy binding to xlib as in swarp?

Thank you, vogt!

What I want is something like "swarp", but more power.
It seems that "swarp" can only move the cursor,
but not send click event.
