great! thanks for this piece of sample code. You might want to to add
this example to the GtkOSXApplication documentation because it will
make life easier for a lot of programmers. I have everything converted
to <command> now. Next I'll look at the <alt> issue. Perhaps I'll just
remove all of the accelerators that use <alt>. Is the <fn> key on OSX
also usable in combination with regular keys?

thanks for your help
