Thank you Andre and John for your replies. I haven't tried the code Andre
gave. I am looking to catch keys other than accelerator keys. I want to
have keys assigned dynamically at run time to certain lua scripts and then
catch those keys to execute the scripts. So is this a wxWidgets issue or
this is something not working right in wxLua?
