Yes, this is my first attempt at a search bar (and I haven't really ever used them myself), so do expect problems!

Ack! I guess I need to add additional code to handle the shift keys; I had kinda expected Qt to already deal with the N900's keyboard, but apparently not (or perhaps they give the programmer more control over the input than I had guessed). I really do need to test these things out more...

Also holding the key to get a number on the first digit doesn't work.

Open Pierogi, Select Keyset by Device, Hold 'e'.
The expected outcome is '3'
You know, I'd never even heard of that before. Hmm. Maybe that's something else that Qt expects the programmer to handle manually? I see that it works as you say even on a terminal command line. That's a handy shortcut! Looks like I need to learn a bit more about how the N900's keyboard really works.

Finally is it supposed to be case sensitive?
It currently isn't but I was expecting it to be.
Yeah, I went ahead and specified case-insensitive on the Qt line editor widget. I kind of thought it'd be easier on the user to not have to worry about how keyset names were capitalized. (And I think the Application Manager works this way too, which is pretty much the only example I've currently got to compare against...)

And yeah, I'll fix the problem with the enter key too. Thanks!
