Keyboard Accelerator Groups

<!-- ##### SECTION Short_Description ##### -->

Groups of global keyboard accelerators for an entire #GtkWindow

<!-- ##### SECTION Long_Description ##### -->
<para id="GtkAccelGroup">
A #GtkAccelGroup represents a group of keyboard accelerators,
typically attached to a toplevel #GtkWindow (with
gtk_window_add_accel_group()). Usually you won't need to create a
#GtkAccelGroup directly; instead, when using #GtkItemFactory, GTK+
automatically sets up the accelerators for your menus in the item
factory's #GtkAccelGroup.
</para>

<para>
Note that <firstterm>accelerators</firstterm> are different from
<firstterm>mnemonics</firstterm>. Accelerators are shortcuts for
activating a menu item; they appear alongside the menu item they're a
shortcut for. For example "Ctrl+Q" might appear alongside the "Quit"
menu item. Mnemonics are shortcuts for GUI elements such as text
entries or buttons; they appear as underlined characters. See
gtk_label_new_with_mnemonic(). Menu items can have both accelerators
and mnemonics, of course.
