Just what I want, however I can't actually find the "xfwm4 help page".
I can find the "About Xfce 4" window and that has a Help button that
takes me to "Xfce 4.4 Documentation" but I can't see anything about
activate_action but it's difficult to guess where to look and I can't
see how to search.

I can't see anything obviously relevant in the man pages either.

Sorry to be so obtuse!  :-)
