==========================================================================================================================================
|phoenix_title|  **wx.AcceleratorTable**
==========================================================================================================================================

An accelerator table allows the application to specify a table of keyboard shortcuts for menu or button commands.          

The object :ref:`wx.NullAcceleratorTable`  is defined to be a table with no data, and is the initial accelerator table for a window. 

Example: 

::

    entries = [wx.AcceleratorEntry() for i in xrange(4)]

    entries[0].Set(wx.ACCEL_CTRL, ord('N'), ID_NEW_WINDOW)
    entries[1].Set(wx.ACCEL_CTRL, ord('X'), wx.ID_EXIT)
    entries[2].Set(wx.ACCEL_SHIFT, ord('A'), ID_ABOUT)
    entries[3].Set(wx.ACCEL_NORMAL, wx.WXK_DELETE, wx.ID_CUT)

    accel = wx.AcceleratorTable(entries)
    frame.SetAcceleratorTable(accel)











         



.. note:: 

   An accelerator takes precedence over normal processing and can be a convenient way to program some event handling. For example, you can use an accelerator table to enable a dialog with a multi-line text control to accept CTRL-Enter as meaning '``wx.OK``'.
