You were close. Try this instead: xpra control :DISPLAY start "THECOMMAND"
For more general information about control subcommands, try: xpra control :DISPLAY help Then there is also (limited) information about each subcommand: xpra control :DISPLAY help start When already connected with the client, you can also start new commands directly from the client's system tray if the server has enabled the "start-new-commands" option.
