Re: Regarding GTK Entry keys (Sanny Chawla)

[haithem rahmani <haithem rahmani gmail com>]

Hi,
I'm also working on a GTK/directfb based application for embedded platform
and My question is :
is it possible to map a RemoteControl keys to be detected by GTK?
currently only numeric keys are detected (0~9).

regards.
