# wxAcceleratorTable(3erl)

Functions for wxAcceleratorTable class

## NAME

wxAcceleratorTable - Functions for wxAcceleratorTable class

## DESCRIPTION

An accelerator table allows the application to specify a table of keyboard shortcuts for menu or button commands.

The object ?wxNullAcceleratorTable is defined to be a table with no data, and is the initial accelerator table for a window.

Example:

Remark: An accelerator takes precedence over normal processing and can be a convenient way to program some event handling. For example, you can use an accelerator table to enable a dialog with a multi-line text control to accept CTRL-Enter as meaning 'OK'.

Predefined objects (include wx.hrl): ?wxNullAcceleratorTable
