Below there is a hint to why people complain about NX keystroke  
configuration file failures.

Marking this issue as important as it has been bugging several people  
in the near past.

Betreff: Re: [X2Go-User] CTRL+ALT+T not working in MATE
      An: Mike Gabriel <mike.gabriel@das-netzwerkteam.de>
      Cc: x2go-user@lists.berlios.de

After further investigation, I think there is another problem here: it
seems to me like the first shortcut in the keystrokes.cfg file is simply
being ignored.

If my file starts like this:

<!DOCTYPE NXKeystroke>
<keystrokes>
<keystroke action="close_session" Control="1" AltMeta= "1" key="c" />
<keystroke action="switch_all_screens" Control="1"  AltMeta= "1" key="f" />
<keystroke action="minimize" Control="1" AltMeta= "1" key="m" />

The CTRL+ALT+C action doesn't work.

But like this:

<!DOCTYPE NXKeystroke>
<keystrokes>
<keystroke action="close_session" Control="1" AltMeta= "1" key="c" />
<keystroke action="close_session" Control="1" AltMeta= "1" key="c" />
<keystroke action="switch_all_screens" Control="1"  AltMeta= "1" key="f" />
<keystroke action="minimize" Control="1" AltMeta= "1" key="m" />

it works just fine!

Could someone perhaps check the code and see if there is a bug in the
parser that ignores the first shortcut listed in the file?

PS: CTRL+ALT+T and CTRL+ALT+Z work just fine now, as long as I put them on
the second line of the file, and not the first!
