Actually, no - I was referring to the underlined letters on a menu which let you access the menu-item by letter when it is open. For example, most application have "_File" "_Edit" etc... so you can do Alt+F+... Actually, gschem doesn't accelerate any of its top-level menus. I can't recall why we never did this - but it might also be worth doing for 1.6.1. (Assuming we call the lack of accelerators a "bug"). We are kind-of duplicating functionality with our existing hot-keys, but it's not uncommon for applications to have both menu accelerators, and keyboard short-cuts (which are usually modifier key based).
