Yeah i missed that... sorry.. i am just still learning about PyQT and QT....

Anyway that do not work cause for sure, now that i am thinking, that key
combination to close an app is reserved by my window manager, which is
KDE... so maybe i will have to implement something related to kde (or PyKDE)

like Sundace make me remember:
   

 did you make sure that the Alt+Esc shortcut is not being 
preempted by something else, like your window manager for instance?


Don't know if is possible directly from QT.

Thanks.....

Cheers.
