Module Okey

module Okey: sig .. end
Okey interface. Convenient functions to handle key press events in Lablgtk2 widgets.

Once the lib is compiled and installed, you can use it by referencing it with the Okey module. You must add okey.cmo or okey.cmx on the commande line when you link.

type modifier = Gdk.Tags.modifier 
val set_default_modifiers : modifier list -> unit
Set the default modifier list. The first default value is [].
val set_default_mask : modifier list -> unit
Set the default modifier mask. The first default value is [`MOD2 ; `MOD3 ; `MOD4 ; `MOD5 ; `LOCK]. The mask defines the modifiers not taken into account when looking for the handler of a key press event.

Setting handlers for simple key press events.


val add : < connect : < destroy : callback:(unit -> unit) -> GtkSignal.id; .. >;
         event : GObj.event_ops; get_oid : int; .. > ->
       ?cond:(unit -> bool) ->
       ?mods:modifier list ->
       ?mask:modifier list -> Gdk.keysym -> (unit -> unit) -> unit
add widget key callback associates the callback function to the event "key_press" with the given key for the given widget.
cond : this function is a guard: the callback function is not called if the cond function returns false. The default cond function always returns true.
mods : the list of modifiers. If not given, the default modifiers are used. You can set the default modifiers with function Okey.set_default_modifiers.
mask : the list of modifiers which must not be taken into account to trigger the given handler. mods and mask must not have common modifiers. If not given, the default mask is used. You can set the default modifiers mask with function Okey.set_default_mask.
val add_list : < connect : < destroy : callback:(unit -> unit) -> GtkSignal.id; .. >;
         event : GObj.event_ops; get_oid : int; .. > ->
       ?cond:(unit -> bool) ->
       ?mods:modifier list ->
       ?mask:modifier list -> Gdk.keysym list -> (unit -> unit) -> unit
It calls Okey.add for each given key.
val set : < connect : < destroy : callback:(unit -> unit) -> GtkSignal.id; .. >;
         event : GObj.event_ops; get_oid : int; .. > ->
       ?cond:(unit -> bool) ->
       ?mods:modifier list ->
       ?mask:modifier list -> Gdk.keysym -> (unit -> unit) -> unit
Like Okey.add but the previous handlers for the given modifiers and key are not kept.
val set_list : < connect : < destroy : callback:(unit -> unit) -> GtkSignal.id; .. >;
         event : GObj.event_ops; get_oid : int; .. > ->
       ?cond:(unit -> bool) ->
       ?mods:modifier list ->
       ?mask:modifier list -> Gdk.keysym list -> (unit -> unit) -> unit
It calls Okey.set for each given key.
val remove_widget : < connect : < destroy : callback:(unit -> unit) -> GtkSignal.id; .. >;
         event : GObj.event_ops; get_oid : int; .. > ->
       unit -> unit
Remove the handlers associated to the given widget. This is automatically done when a widget is destroyed but you can do it yourself.

Setting handlers for combination of key press events, a la emacs


type handler 
type keyhit_spec 
type keyhit_state = (modifier list * Gdk.keysym) list 
val ignored_keys : Gdk.keysym list Pervasives.ref
The keys which are ignored when they are pressed alone.
type handler_tree_node =
| Handler of handler
| Node of handler_tree list 
type handler_tree = {
   mutable hst_spec : keyhit_spec;
   mutable hst_v : handler_tree_node;
}

       (unit -> handler_tree list) ->
       ?f_display_state:(after_handler:bool -> keyhit_state -> unit) ->
       < event : GObj.event_ops; misc : GObj.misc_ops; .. > -> unit
val handler : ?cond:(unit -> bool) -> (unit -> unit) -> handler
val keyhit_spec : ?mods:modifier list ->
       ?mask:modifier list -> Gdk.keysym -> keyhit_spec

       ?mask:modifier list ->
