Hi,

I have tried to define an accelerator for a button, then I've seen that 
the accelerator for menu items work on more platforms so I've tried to 
define an accelerator for a menu item, but it still doesn't work.

I've defined the menu item:

$self->{FileStop} = $self->{FileMenu}->Append(-1, t("S&top\tEsc"));

#... then the accelerator:
my $accelerator = Wx::AcceleratorTable->new
  ([wxACCEL_NORMAL, WXK_ESCAPE, $self->{FileStop}]);
$self->SetAcceleratorTable( $accelerator );

The 3rd arg needs to be a command id.
$self->{FileStop} contains the boolean result from appending the menu
item.


Aha, I understand. I thought that the third item must be the ID of the menu 
item.
(But I think the ID of the menu item is returned by the Append() method, 
because I can use that value when defining events for it.)

Please tell me how to get the ID of the command that should execute a 
certain function.
I've seen only examples when Escape is used for closing a window, but I need 
it for executing a certain function.

Thanks.
