I was just wondering, loving tk and all... if there is a way to bind keys so they are GLOBAL? Meaning that the application doesnt even have to have focus (the gui can even be ->withdraw'n), and the keycombination you define works "activating" something you want in the perl application. I would prefer in Tk, but any way is fine. Or many ways! (guess this works doing with the Win32::GUI, although I have no clue how to do it)
