shortcuts

I have a WPF app that is using the MVVM pattern. Hooking up buttons to the VM is pretty straight forward since they implement the ICommand. I have a context menu that works similar. The next step is to create shortcut keys for the context menu. I can't figure out how to get the shortcut key invoke the Command. Here is an example: <MenuItem Header="Update" Command="{Binding btnUpdate}" > <MenuItem.Icon> <Image Source="/Images/Update.png" Width="16" Height="16" /> </MenuItem.Icon> </MenuItem> now I've added this: <Window.InputBindings> <KeyBinding Key="U" Modifiers="Control" Command="{Binding

I would like to include customizable keyboard shortcuts in my Java application (the user can change them). Since this is not very unusual request, I was wondering if there exists a library/project that could help me achieve my goal. Unfortunately I was not able to find anything useful on Google.
