Of course it does, like most GUI toolkits. How would a text editor work
otherwise, for instance ?
Consider the signal defined in Gtk.Widget, call  key_press_event.

You might also want to read a X-Window or Win32 manual (depending on your
system), if you are not confident enough with programming GUI toolkits.
