gEDA-dev: [PATCH] gschem: Visual feedback for keyboard commands

[Ivan Stankovic]

Hi,

Here is a patch to add visual feedback when pressing keyboard
accelerators. The current keyboard accelerator is displayed in 
the status bar. 

Let me give an example; if you press 'f', the string displayed 
will be just 'f' and it will stay displayed until you press 
another key. Assume then you press 'w'. Then the 'w' will be 
appended to the string and 'fw' will be displayed in the
status bar for 400ms. After that the string is cleared.
(The string is also cleared any time you press Escape.)

Personally I like this behaviour very much, but I'm sure
there are people with a different taste. What do you think?

The patch applies on top of my latest i_basic.c-cleanup
patch. Comments and suggestions welcome.
