Re: how to catch keystroke in clipman menu?

Thank you Gaël,

I managed to add the two keybinding I was thinking about!

now DEL key removes an item dynamically from the history, by visually 
selecting it in the menu.
I also added S key (lower case) to Swap / Secure an Item.

S was in conflict with Accelerator for History dialog box. 😉
Now history open by H.
It's mainly for testing, because I didn't want to bind two distinct keys 
that almost execute the same code. (DRY code)

Thanks for your help, excellent!

I own you a fresh beer! 😉
