## Detailed Description

A push button that looks like a keyboard key.

You must call setShortcut() to set the widget's currently displayed key. You can call captureShortcut() to get a new shortcut from the user. If captureShortcut() suceeds, then the capturedShortcut signal will be emitted with the value of the new shortcut. The widget containing a KKeyButton widget must connect to this signal and check if the shortcut is valid. If it is, you will need to call setShortcut() with the new value in order make it the key currently displayed.
