I'd like to be able to move windows between multiple monitors by using shortcut keys. Does anyone know I might do this in Trisquel 8?

Are you using MATE? If so, go to Control Center -> Keyboard Shortcuts. Look for the actions called "Move to workspace left" and "Move to workspace right" or something similar and map them to your preferred shortcuts.

Yes, I am using the default DE (Mate) ... To be clear, I'm not trying to move the window to a new workspace. I want to move the window to another monitor.

I thought Trisquel 8 had a shortcut for this already. Hrm... OK

I thought that Marco (MATE's default window manager) assigns different workspaces to different monitors unless you have "Same image in all monitors" selected in Control Center -> Displays, in which case moving a window to a different monitor is equivalent to moving it to whichever workspace is on that monitor. I could be misremembering, though. It's been a while since I used Marco.
