Quick shortcuts assignment

It would be awesome to be able to define one or two quick options like exit or go back (customisable) and mappable to different keys !

For example:

> aaa
bbb
ccc
ddd
(q) Exit
(;) Go Back

@buanzo: v0.9.0 is released and adds configurable accept keys. You can now do something like:

#!/usr/bin/env python3

import os
from simple_term_menu import TerminalMenu


def main():
    terminal_menu = TerminalMenu(["entry 1", "entry 2", "entry 3"], accept_keys=("enter", "alt-d", "ctrl-i"))
    terminal_menu.show()
    print(terminal_menu.chosen_accept_key)


if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

to distinguish different accept keys and or modifiers.

Version v0.8.0 includes support for shortcuts by prepending single keys in square brackets before every menu entry. Have a look at the README for more info. @buanzo That is still not what you need. Maybe, we could add support for multple shortcut keys and set the pressed key in a property of the TermMenu instance? Or do you simply want to press modifier keys when selecting a shortcut?
