Without seeing your code it's difficult to guess what you're doing wrong, but in a nutshell, you should bind a callback to the parent MainWindow, for example:

use Tk; $mw = tkinit; $mw->Text->pack; $mw->bind('<Control-s>', sub { print "save something...\n" }); MainLoop;

The parent widget gets the keyboard input and responds to it instead of passing the event to the Text widget. If this doesn't fix the problem or doesn't address the right problem, post a snippet of code that shows what you're trying to do.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
