Detailed Description

Defines accelerator key combinations.

For instance, pressing Control-Q to activate the File|Quit menu item.

By defining accelerator paths you can allow the user of your application to change accelerators himself. An example of an accelerator might be "<MainWindow>/File/Open". Modified accelerators may be saved.

Key values are the codes which are sent whenever a key is pressed or released. The complete list of key values can be found in the gdk/gdkkeysyms.h header file. They are prefixed with GDK_KEY_.
