GTK has traditionally supported different kinds of shortcuts:
-Accelerators
- : Accelerators are any other shortcuts that can be activated regardless
- of where the focus is, and typically trigger global actions, such as
- Ctrl-Q to quit an application.
-Mnmemonics
- : Mnemonics are usually triggered using Alt as a modifier for a letter.
- They are used in places where a label is associated with a control,
- and are indicated by underlining the letter in the label. As a special
- case, inside menus (i.e. inside #GtkPopoverMenu), mnemonics can be
- triggered without the modifier.
-Key bindings
- : Key bindings are specific to individual widgets, such as Ctrl-C or
- Ctrl-V in an entry copy to or paste from the clipboard. They are only
- triggered when the widget has focus.

GTK handles accelerators and mnemonics in a global scope, during the
capture phase, and key bindings locally, during the target phase.
