processing keyboard events in X [message #9694]

Writing a GUI in IDL 5 (SunOS 5) and would like to be able to process
keyboard interrupts from any window (as opposed to from stdin). Such an
operation would be trivial in C/C++, but I can't seem to find any way of
getting IDL to recognize that a key has been pressed while the mouse
focus is on a draw widget, for example.Being unable to create widget
hotkeys is, IMO, a ridiculous limitation, so I'm sure there must be a way
to do it. Any ideas? Please respond via e-mail, if possible (mail reader
is *very* slow).

Thanks,

Aviv S. Gladman, MASc
