Dear Swingers, ;->

I sent this message out on the regular Swing list yesterday, but realized
this is a rather advanced question, so I'm posting it here.  Thanks for any
help you can offer.

We're writing an app that has an Edit menu containing items for Cut, Copy,
Paste, Select All, etc.

I know Swing already has functionality corresponding to these tasks because
when the appropriate key is pressed (ctrl-x, c, v, a, respectively), the
right thing happens.

How can I get access to these actions so I can attach them to my menu items?

I know DefaultEditorKit has public static classes for cut, copy, and paste,
and some others.  However, SelectAll, among others, is an inner class that
is not public, so I can't access it from a subclass outside of its package.

What is the best way to get to this functionality?  For example, is there a
way to "stuff" the appropriate key into a key input buffer?

Thanks for any help.

- Keith and Maddy
