Hi
I am trying to create a custom widget based on gtk textview (the gtk#
bindings for C#). The purpose is to enable writing my local language Urdu in
textview instead of English. I am unable to find how can I hack the keyboard
input before it appears on screen (so I change the key values like a to ا
and b to ب etc). I am a beginner so plz suggest me it this regards.
Obviously I want to do it in c# (mono has Gdk.Keyboard, Gdk.Keymap and some
other such classes, but I am unable to figure out a way to get the pressed
key's value and change it before it is passed to textview buffer). At last
here is the example my friend done in system.windows.forms textbox.
