[platform-swt-dev] StyledText and keyboard actions

[Thomas Singer <ts-swt@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Currently we are using an ugly hack to modify the behavior of some 
default shortcuts and add own shortcuts in a StyledText by having a 
subclass of StyledText inside org.eclipse.swt.custom and overriding the 
method invokeAction(int actionId).

For example, we can cut/copy without selection or limit 
cursor-left/-right to the very line, have a more advanced 
delete-previous or Mac-like handling of cursor-up/-down.

What is the designed way of
- replacing default shortcuts with own ones and
- add new shortcuts?

Thanks in advance.
