While browsing the GTK source, I came across a comment showing how to fake the deprecated ImageMenuItem and add an AccelKey. I'm not sure why this was considered useful enough to write about in the source comments, but it sounded like an interesting exercise. So I ported the code from C to D which turned out to be more challenging than I thought it would be.

But the result is today's post: how to produce a MenuItem with an image AND and AccelKey.

Here's the link: http://gtkdcoding.com/2019/05/07/0033-fake_image_menu_and_accel.html

Thanks!

the github link links to file .._16_.. from 0032 instead of .._17_..


some end block comments need update:

All fixed. As always, I'm eternally grateful for the proofreading, number.
