How to operate xfswitch in terminal.

Hi.
I search for advice how to operate xfswitch from command line in fluxbox.
I`m using Linux Mint with Fluxbox.
And I`d like to switch logins like in KDE, GNOME or XFCE.
Gdmflexiserver and kdmctl have large dependencies. I found xfswitch enough compact.
But  I haven`t found any explanation how to operate it in console.

To the best of my knowledge, Xfswitch is just a plugin for Xfce4-panel. It can't be invoked via the the shell and it still relies on GDM to do the actual switching.
