[wxPython] Capturing the ENTER key event in a wxTextCtrl

[eightbits]

Yes, an old post , I know. But, it seems to use some syntax associated with
Windows ?
I am using Linux (Ubuntu 12.04) and wonder if this post from Robin works
with Linux.
Also, is there a method or way to allow both the TAB and the Enter key to
work in the same fashion?
Thanks.

All Robin really said was to use SetFocus... I tried something like this
recently and since my text fields were created in order I was able to
simply do this in the TE_PROCESS_ENTER handler:
event.GetEventObject().GetNextSibling().SetFocus()


What do you really want to do? I don't understand if you want TAB to get
processed like an ENTER key does (firing an event) or rather you want a TAB
character to show up in your textbox when TAB is pressed, and a newline
when ENTER is pressed.
