Linux command line to increase/decrease volume

If you want to have custom shortcuts for increase/decrease volume:

Increase

amixer -D pulse sset Master 5%+

Decrease

amixer -D pulse sset Master 5%-

Mute

amixer -D pulse sset Master mute

Unmute

amixer -D pulse sset Master unmute

sset is not a spelling mistake :)
