Subject: | keyboard mapping with lablgtk2 |
hi there, i want to create a special keyboard mode for creating tables in a textview widget with lablgtk2. To create one row the user should move with ENTER from cell to cell until the end is reached and then ENTER to the next row: this is my callback-function: let key_pressed (textview:GText.view) (ev:GdkEvent.Key.t) = let newch = GdkEvent.Key.string ev in let buffer = textview#buffer in let iter = buffer#end_iter in if (newch = "\n") then buffer#insert ~iter " " else buffer#insert ~iter newch; true For now it should insert empty spaces when ENTER is hit. Unfortunately it doesn't work, it just inserts a new line. Also, the functionality of the keyboard is limited, the backspace key for instance doesn't work, but i could work around that thing. Who can tell me how to correctly test the keys? A code snippet might be helpful, too. Thanks for help, Christian
