/**
 * The <code>MenuShortcut</code>class represents a keyboard accelerator
 * for a MenuItem.
 * <p>
 * Menu shortcuts are created using virtual keycodes, not characters.
 * For example, a menu shortcut for Ctrl-a (assuming that Control is
 * the accelerator key) would be created with code like the following:
 * <p>
 * <code>MenuShortcut ms = new MenuShortcut(KeyEvent.VK_A, false);</code>
 * <p> or alternatively
 * <p>
 * <code>MenuShortcut ms = new MenuShortcut(KeyEvent.getExtendedKeyCodeForChar('A'), false);</code>
 * <p>
 * Menu shortcuts may also be constructed for a wider set of keycodes
 * using the <code>java.awt.event.KeyEvent.getExtendedKeyCodeForChar</code> call.
 * For example, a menu shortcut for "Ctrl+cyrillic ef" is created by
 * <p>
 * <code>MenuShortcut ms = new MenuShortcut(KeyEvent.getExtendedKeyCodeForChar('\u0444'), false);</code>
 * <p>
 * Note that shortcuts created with a keycode or an extended keycode defined as a constant in <code>KeyEvent</code>
 * work regardless of the current keyboard layout. However, a shortcut made of
 * an extended keycode not listed in <code>KeyEvent</code>
 * only work if the current keyboard layout produces a corresponding letter.
 * <p>
 * The accelerator key is platform-dependent and may be obtained
 * via {@link Toolkit#getMenuShortcutKeyMask}.
