Whats the usefullness of using new_with_mnemonic in Label, since
afaik Gtk2::Label is readonly widget.
You can set the label to be the mnemonic for another widget.
# new() is aliased to new_with_mnemonic() in the perl bindings:
$label = Gtk2::Label->new ('_User Name');
$entry = Gtk2::Entry->new;
# set $label to be the mnemonic for $entry
$label->set_mnemonic_for ($entry);
$hbox = Gtk2::HBox->new;
$hbox->pack_start ($label, FALSE, FALSE, 0);
$hbox->pack_start ($entry, TRUE, TRUE, 0);
This sets things up so that when the user activates the mnemonic Alt
+u (in $entry), the keyboard focus goes to $entry.
gtk_button_new_with_mnemonic() and the like essentially do this for
you. For separate widgets, you have to do it by hand.
