Applescript 更改快捷方式以便能够清除 iTerm2 中的行

Question

I am trying to make an applescript to be able to cmd + L to get ctrl + L to clear lines in iTerm as suggested by this answer .

After copying a working, example applescript from here shown below,

tell application "System Events" to keystroke "l" using control down

I am trying to change the application to "iTerm2" as shown below,

tell application "iTerm2" to keystroke "l" using control down

so the shortcut in not global, but I get a Syntax error:

A identifier can't go after this “"”.

Removing the quotes ( this also works in the working example ) brings up a different Syntax error:

"A identifier can't go after this identifier."

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks to @gurkensaas's comment for the correct answer. I post the complete working script below for other people.

tell application "iTerm" to activate
delay 0.1
tell application "System Events"
    try
        keystroke "l" using control down
    end try
end tell
