In Delphi, it exists in menus.pas. That is why I put it there.

Great. That will really help. These are a couple of the shell functions that I
just blocked out with the MWE_LAZ_FIX_LATER define :-)

Great. Now we just need to figure out how to deal with these virtual keys in
Linux :-)   I thought about this a little bit and we might be able to create a
conversion function that we pass in a virtual key (VK_F1) and it returns the
proper value that should be used in Linux. This function will need to call out
to the gtkint units because it will be different on each platform. Any
other ideas how we can deal with virtual keys?

That is a good question. I'm not sure yet either. Can we just do it as a Record
or something? I don't know.
