Okay, having got no responses, let me ask the question in a more direct manner: under Gtk+, how does one check whether or not any particular keyboard key is currently pressed? I know this is possible because I used to do it back in my ClanLib days. I see in the Gdk docs that there is a GdkDevice object, but it is not clear to me how to create or utilize this to such an end. -- frigidcode.com indicium.us
