Off the top of my head (I currently don't have tomboy installed, so I might be just plain wrong), tomboy has a shortcut to open a new window (i.e., a new note), but I want a shortcut to shift focus to an existing window (or, more precisely, a GtkEntry inside an applet inside a panel). This may or may not be an important difference. I tried to code something up a number of months back, pre-2.10, but got stuck. It might be easier now, with the new request_focus API. One more for the TODO list, I guess. :) Also, possibly off-topic, tomboy's keybinding code is some Xlib magic, written in C (as opposed to the rest of Tomboy, in C#), rather than a GNOME or GTK API. If I wanted to re-use the code, but not just blind copy-and-paste, what's the process for bumping such a thing up into GNOME, and where should it live? libegg?
