The gtk:accel-group object represents a group of keyboard accelerators, typically attached to a toplevel gtk:window widget with the gtk:window-add-accel-group function. Usually you will not need to create a gtk:accel-group object directly. Instead, when using the gtk:ui-manager class, GTK automatically sets up the accelerators for your menus in the gtk:accel-group object of the UI manager.

Note that accelerators are different from mnemonics. Accelerators are shortcuts for activating a menu item. They appear alongside the menu item they are 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 the gtk:label-new-with-mnemonic function. Menu items can have both accelerators and mnemonics, of course.
