You can switch identities with dfx identity use <identity_name>

dfx identity list will show all of your identities, these are all stored in the ~/.config/dfx/identity directory on your local machine. Copying a .pem file generated by keysmith to a named folder in this directory will add it as an identity in this list.

Running dfx ledger account-id will then show the ledger address for the currently selected identity.

As per your screenshot, you can then send ICP using dfx ledger transfer:

If you need to see the options for any of the dfx commands you can use the --help flag, eg
dfx ledger --help
dfx ledger transfer --help

If you’re using an airgapped setup (sign messages on an airgapped machine, send them from a networked machine) then the quill tool is a good option and has similar commands: https://github.com/dfinity/quill#usage
