Version 1 of How to get Menu Accelerators to work under Windows

Updated 2004-01-07 12:06:56

PWQ 7 Jan 03 I have an application that was developed under linux.

When I tested it out under Windows I found to my dismay that Alt-Key did not post the menus as it does under Linux.

What is the magic incantation to make it happen without binding each and every key?

RS I notice with my Tk app on Windows 2000, that Alt-F highlights the File menu, but the menu is often only posted after I hit <Return> too. This is without any underlines in the menu, or explicit bindings done by me. If several menus start with the same letter, they are cycled through on repeated Alt-(letter).
