SF Patch #1500190 from resiak

"Lots of people ask how to make Escape close the
 conversation window, and the FAQ doesn't say how. With
 this patch, there will be! (Plus, if you apply now you
 get a free set of "emacs" keybindings.)"

+Q:	How do I make Escape close the conversation window?
+
+A:	Sadly, you can't use the hover-and-press technique just described
+for this, because Escape closes the menu.  You have to hand-edit
+<code>~/.gaim/accels</code>.  Close Gaim, and open
+<code>~/.gaim/accels</code> in your favorite text editor.  Find
+<code>(gtk_accel_path "&lt;main&gt;/Conversation/Close"
+"[something]")</code>, remove the semi-colon (which is the comment
+character) from the start of the line if it is there and replace whatever
+is between the second pair of quote marks with <code>Escape</code>.  Save
+and close, and restart Gaim.
