Simulate key presses with Robot Framework

We've defined the key-press sequence Ctrl + S in our web application to a specific action (save the current form).

Now we want to test that behavior with Robot Framework. How can we describe that accurately to do that?

The documentation describes how to use Enter or any single key press, but nothing is said about combinations. So how to trigger a Ctrl + S, for instance?

I found a solution with the ImageHorizonLibrary:

Press Combination    Key.CTRL    Key.S

I was looking for the same and came across this. It says it is under implementation. Follow this for more update.

Lets hope it will be available to use by Oct-2015.
