context menu keyboard key
Hi, is there a way to open context menu without using mouse/right click? Keyboards generally have a special key for this, but Pharo doesn't seem to even recognize the keypress. To anyone familiar with this, can this be fixed in image? Or digging into VM is needed? Thanks, -- Peter

some time ago, esc-key was used for that.

don't know when it was gone, but it should be possible to fix this in-image.
Thanks, -- Peter

funny, it seems, this was removed on purpose: RubAbstractTextArea>>#escapePressed "do nothing. do not simulate a right click because Esc is too useful as a shortcut for other purposes to be used for popping a menu" "^ self yellowButtonActivity: false"
