Just getting started with the idea of extending zim.  I'm a professional
programmer, but my python a bit rusty and no experience with gtk+.

 

All I wanted to do to start is add some custom 'hot keys' for editing
lists/bullets so that it behaves like one note.  I've grabbed the source
tarball and I've got a working environment with PyCharm.  I can run/debug
the code. It looks like the code I need to hook into is the
do_key_press_event method of the TextView class found in gui/pageview.py.

 

Any further details on how to hook specific keys, or any other advice
appreciated.
