[Gtk-sharp-list] accelgroup.Connect problem

[Davide Lasagna]

Hi Matthew,
Thanks for the quick answer. I understand the code you wrote, which
basically binds the shortcut to the menuitem to a handler.
However this won't work if the menubar is not visible. What i'd like to do
is to bind some shortcuts to the main window, without the menubar.
Is this possible?

Thanks,
Davide
