            AcceleratorTable

An accelerator table allows the application to specify a table of keyboard shortcuts for menus or other commands. On Windows, menu or button commands are supported; on GTK, only menu commands are supported.

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

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 make a hotkey generate an event no matter which window within a frame has the focus.

For example:

aTable = wx.AcceleratorTable([(wx.ACCEL_ALT,  ord('X'), exitID),
                              (wx.ACCEL_CTRL, ord('H'), helpID),
                              (wx.ACCEL_CTRL, ord('F'), findID),
                              (wx.ACCEL_NORMAL, wx.WXK_F3, findnextID)
                              ])
self.SetAcceleratorTable(aTable)
