Summary: One more key binding bug
Initial Comment:
Hi,
I found in-equivalence of accelerators in Macro and Background Menus.
Define simple macro
define key_binding_test {
insert_string("test")
}
a) Make Macro Menu item `test' and bind key_binding_test() to Alt+u.
Press Alt+u
String `test' is inserted in buffer. All is OK!
Delete the accelerator in Macro Menu and add it to Xresources
nedit*text.Translations: #override \n\
Alt<Key>u:macro_menu_command("test")\n\
......
Press Alt+u - String `test' is inserted in buffer. All is OK!
b) Delete the entry `test' from Macro Menu and remove Alt+u from Xresources.
Make Background Menu item `test' and bind key_binding_test() to Alt+u.
Press Alt+u
String `testu' is inserted in buffer. THIS IS A BUG!
Delete the accelerator in Background Menu and add it to Xresources
nedit*text.Translations: #override \n\
Alt<Key>u:dg_menu_command("test")\n\
......
Press Alt+u - String `test' is inserted in buffer. All is OK!

If key is multiply bound to some macros both in menu and via X resources
the following hierarchy of macro execution is observed when the key is
used.
a) Key is bound via X-resources and in Shell or (and) Macro menu.
Macro from Shell or Macro menu is executed. X-resource is ignored.
b) When key is bound via X-resources and in Window Background menu,
both macros are executed. This is a bug.

Well, the accelerators for the background menu don't work here:

BUT I can confirm the behaviour you observed for Open Motif 2.2.4 (which
is nothing but 2.2.3 with just a security fix). This surprises me
completely, because I reported the problem about accelerators not working
for background menu ages ago to the list and was taught then that they
can't work and never were intended to be. This was only not documented.

Hi,
Accelerators work, see my example, but the "key itself" is also inserted
when key is combined with Alt modifier.
At the same time, when accelerator is specified in Macro menu, the "key
itself" is not inserted.

Accelerators in the window background menu can't work, since the menu is
not shown. This is merely a documentation bug. While the same dialog box is
used for the macro and window background menus, this accelerator thing
should be mentioned under "Customizing Menus".
