Note the difference between "Strg" in German and "Ctrl" in English. There are a lot other combinations as well.

Thx, but doesn't work correct and use API!

Comes Ctrl and not STRG for German, EINGABE (Return) doesn't work,
and with API it is useless for me.

I just got the idea that it might be more useful to add a complete new function for this, so we don't have to create a ShortcutGadget() just to get the text of a key combination.
