Command to switch workspaces.

Anyone know where I can find the commands that would allow me to switch to specific workspaces?  I'd like to make alt+1 switch to workspace 1, and alt+2, etc via additional keybindings!

Thanks!

For me, those key binding switch tabs in Iceweasel. CTL+ALT+<arrowkeys> switch workspaces for me. I have my pager in a 2x2 layout so I use the left and right as well as up and down.

Yeah they do the same for Firefox.  I was using wmii recently and I became very accustom to using their bindings to switch workspaces (alt+1, etc).  I was hoping to change it so that xfce was more like wmii for bindings.  Thanks though!

Also, I'd love to somehow change Alt+F2 to Alt+P instead.

You can have icons on the panel to decide which desktop to use.  Left click the panel -> add to panel and you'll see a long list of items you can add to the
panel.  One of them - I forgot which - is the icons for multiple desktops (go thru the list - it should be obvious).
