Ah. No, you must connect to the key_press signal. If you want to
"swallow" the key (ie. the Entry should not see it), you can call
emit_stop_my_name(). I'm using this to scroll a CList from
within an Entry (if I would not swallow the signal, the Up/Down
events would move the focus).
But something else I noticed: While I'm in an Entry, the accelerators
don't work anymore (ie. I cannot activate the _Ok button with Alt-O).
Any ideas how to solve this ?
