Hello list,
I've often wanted to find out how to evoke gnome-panel menus via textual
commands, so that I could open and switch focus to a menu via a keyboard
shortcut. For example, GNOME 2's "shutdown menu" part of the Indicator
applet is mapped to <Super-S> on my system, and the main Applications
menu is accessible via <Alt-F1>.
Say I'd like to change these mappings, or create similar mappings in
GNOME Classic - I'd need to have a "command" to evoke on pressing my
desired keyboard combination, right? I don't know how else to describe
what I want to the system. So:
What command can be used to interact with gnome-panel menus / applets?
And, is there a generalised way I can find out what internal signals or
commands are executed when I interact with parts of the GNOME desktop
with the mouse?
Thanks!
