Auto-accelerators like that only work if you do it in a wx.StaticText that comes before (in the tab-order) the widget to be jumped to. This should work for Windows, and perhaps GTK. I don't think that the Mac has equivalent native behavior so I don't think that wx does anything for it there.

Cool, this seems to work well on both Windows and GTK.
By the way, it seems that Google Groups is malfunctioning; I didn’t get any email notifications for this thread, even though I set email notifications to be sent. (And I can still see it’s set to send them.) Just an FYI, so if I miss any messages, this is probably the reason.
