Yet another try. Of coures i'm not even sure i'm calling RegisterHotKey correctly ;(

#!/usr/bin/perl
$| =1;
use warnings;
use strict;

use Data::Dumper;

use Win32::GUI;

use Win32::API;
my $proto = 'BOOL RegisterHotKey(HWND hWnd, int id, UINT fsModifiers, 
+UINT vk)';
Win32::API->Import('user32', $proto) or die "import RegisterHotKey: $!
+ ($^W)";

my $mw_win32 = new Win32::GUI::Window(
                        -title   => 'This is a test!',
                        -width   => 100,
                        -height  => 100,
                        -name    => 'MainWindow');
                        

$mw_win32->Show();
# Call:
my $ret = RegisterHotKey ($mw_win32->{-handle}, 10, 11 , 41);
if (not $ret) { die "RegisterHotKey: $! ($^E)"; }
print "Return: $ret\n";

$mw_win32->Hook( 273, sub {print "TEST"});

while (1) {
    Win32::GUI::DoEvents(); 
    my $x = [$mw_win32->PeekMessage()];
    print Dumper($x) if @$x > 1;
}

This still doesn't work, in fact the PeekMessage's doesn't appear to do anything at all! And the hook never fires either.
