thank you again..
I must say I'm disappointed that this isn't supported by Linux by default..
hmm should I write Torvalds about this?
funny it may sound, but I'd actually do it.
it's a nice extra functionality, and I'm sure I'm not the only one missing it.

prima::keyselector
Prima::KeySelector(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Prima::KeySelector(3)
NAME
Prima::KeySelector - key combination widget and routines
DESCRIPTION
The module provides a standard widget for selecting a user-defined key combination. The widget class allows import, export, and
modification of key combinations.
The module provides a set of routines, useful for conversion of a key combination between representations.
SYNOPSIS
my $ks = Prima::KeySelector-> create( );
$ks-> key( km::Alt | ord('X'));
print Prima::KeySelector::describe( $ks-> key );
API
Properties
key INTEGER
Selects a key combination in integer format. The format is described in "Hot key" in Prima::Menu, and is a combination of "km::XXX" key
modifiers and either a "kb::XXX" virtual key, or a character code value.
The property allows almost, but not all possible combinations of key constants. Only "km::Ctrl", "km::Alt", and "km::Shift" modifiers
are allowed.
Methods
All methods here can ( and must ) be called without the object syntax; - the first parameter must not be neither package nor widget.
describe KEY
Accepts KEY in integer format, and returns string description of the key combination in human readable format. Useful for supplying an
accelerator text to a menu.
print describe( km::Shift|km::Ctrl|km::F10);
Ctrl+Shift+F10
export KEY
Accepts KEY in integer format, and returns string with a perl-evaluable expression, which after evaluation resolves to the original KEY
value. Useful for storing a key into text config files, where value must be both human readable and easily passed to a program.
print export( km::Shift|km::Ctrl|km::F10);
km::Shift|km::Ctrl|km::F10
shortcut KEY
Converts KEY from integer format to a string, acceptable by "Prima::AbstractMenu" input methods.
print shortcut( km::Ctrl|ord('X'));
^X
translate_codes KEY, [ USE_CTRL = 0 ]
Converts KEY in integer format to three integers in the format accepted by "KeyDown" in Prima::Widget event: code, key, and modifier.
USE_CTRL is only relevant when KEY first byte ( "KEY & 0xFF" ) is between 1 and 26, what means that the key is a combination of an
alpha key with the control key. If USE_CTRL is 1, code result is unaltered, and is in range 1 - 26. Otherwise, code result is
converted to the character code ( 1 to ord('A'), 2 to ord('B') etc ).
