+    The mandatory "class" attribute specifies the full-qualified name of the class implementing the action.
+    The mandatory "text" attribute specifies the text of the action (tooltip for toolbar button or text for menu item).
+    The optional "use-shortcut-of" attribute specifies the ID of the action whose keyboard shortcut this action will use.
+    The optional "description" attribute specifies the text which is displayed in the status bar when the action is focused.

+      <!-- The <keyboard-shortcut> node specifies the keyboard shortcut for the action. An action can have several keyboard shortcuts.
+      The mandatory "first-keystroke" attribute specifies the first keystroke of the action. The key strokes are specified according to the regular Swing rules.
+      The optional "second-keystroke" attribute specifies the second keystroke of the action.
+      The mandatory "keymap" attribute specifies the keymap for which the action is active. IDs of the standard keymaps are defined as

+      The mandatory "keystroke" attribute specifies the clicks and modifiers for the action. It is defined as a sequence of words separated by spaces:
+      "button1", "button2", "button3" for the mouse buttons; "shift", "control", "meta", "alt", "altGraph" for the modifier keys;
+      "doubleClick" if the action is activated by a double-click of the button.

+      The mandatory "group-id" attribute specifies the ID of the group to which the action is added.
+      The group must be implemented by an instance of the DefaultActionGroup class.
+      The mandatory "anchor" attribute specifies the position of the action in the group relative to other actions. It can have the values
+      "first", "last", "before" and "after".
+      The "relative-to-action" attribute is mandatory if the anchor is set to "before" and "after", and specifies the action before or after which
