ShortcutTrigger.parseString

Tries to parse the given string into a trigger.

On success, the parsed trigger is returned. When parsing failed, null is returned.

The accepted strings are:

• never, for gtk.never_trigger.NeverTrigger
• a string parsed by gtk.global.acceleratorParse, for a gtk.keyval_trigger.KeyvalTrigger, e.g. <Control>C
• underscore, followed by a single character, for gtk.mnemonic_trigger.MnemonicTrigger, e.g. _l
• two valid trigger strings, separated by a | character, for a gtk.alternative_trigger.AlternativeTrigger: <Control>q|<Control>w

Note that you will have to escape the < and > characters when specifying triggers in XML files, such as GtkBuilder ui files. Use &lt; instead of < and &gt; instead of >.
