Summary: One more key binding bug

Initial Comment:
Hi,
I found in-equivalence of accelerators in Macro and Background Menus.

Define simple macro

define key_binding_test {
   insert_string("test")
}

a) Make Macro Menu item `test' and bind key_binding_test() to Alt+u.
   Press Alt+u
   String `test' is inserted in buffer.	All is OK!
   Delete the accelerator in Macro Menu and add it to Xresources

nedit*text.Translations: #override \n\
Alt<Key>u:macro_menu_command("test")\n\

	......
	Press Alt+u - String `test' is inserted in buffer.	All is OK!
	
	
b) Delete the entry `test' from Macro Menu and remove Alt+u from Xresources.
   Make Background Menu item `test' and bind key_binding_test() to Alt+u.
   Press Alt+u
   String `testu' is inserted in buffer. THIS IS A BUG!
   Delete the accelerator in Background Menu and add it to Xresources

nedit*text.Translations: #override \n\
Alt<Key>u:dg_menu_command("test")\n\

	......
	Press Alt+u - String `test' is inserted in buffer.	All is OK!

Hi,

Accelerators work, see my example, but the "key itself" is also inserted
when key is combined with Alt modifier.

At the same time, when accelerator is specified in Macro menu, the "key
itself" is not inserted.

Accelerators in the window background menu can't work, since the menu is
not shown. This is merely a documentation bug. While the same dialog box is
used for the macro and window background menus, this accelerator thing
should be mentioned under "Customizing Menus".
