How do I trigger a command that contains modifiers?

Hi all,

Thanks for the very cool utility. I'm looking to send commands that contain modifier keys and, for the life of me, I can't figure out how to put this into LeaderKey. As an example, I want to have a key to lock my screen. The standard keyboard shortcut is Control+Command+Q. How do I enter this into the command field in LeaderKey?

Use command type and make it run

osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to keystroke "q" using {control down, command down}'
