 Hello,

 FAQ 9.4:

     How do I bind keystrokes to menu items?
     http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/Using
 Pidgin#HowdoIbindkeystrokestomenuitems

 needs additional information for Xfce 4.4 users like myself. Here's a
 patch:

 ------------------------------

     If you're using a recent enough Gnome, you can instead

     open the Appearance preferences applet, switch to the

     Interface tab and toggle Editable menu shortcut keys. In

     older versions of Gnome, use gconf-editor to set the

     /desktop/gnome/interface/can_change_accels key instead

     (which is what happens in newer Gnomes behind the scenes

     anyway). You don't need to restart Pidgin if you take

     the gconf path.

 +

 +   If you're using Xfce 4, you also need to have "Editable

 +   menu accelerators" checked in your User Interface

 +   Preferences.

 +

 +   In the event that all these methods fail, the file

 +   $HOME/.purple/accels may be edited directly.
