naughty, naughty!  use Gtk2::Gdk::Keysyms for symbolic names, never the 
raw numbers.  that file is generated from your headers at install time.


now, for a search you probably have an Entry.  there's a method you can 
use on an entry to make pressing Enter in the entry activate the 
default button in a dialog (the button that would be activated if you 
just pressed enter in the dialog).  $entry->activate_default (1), i 
believe.  would this solve your problem?
