I think there is in wxWidgets: EVT_TEXT but I can't find its 
counterpart in wxHaskell.

Your solution with the keyboard event may work if you do it like this:
   on keyboard = do { propagateEvent; ...Do what you want to do ... }
This might process the keystroke before you look at the new contents of 
the text entry field.

Your second question about tree controls I can't answer.

Most resources are managed, i.e. handled by the Haskell garbage 
collector. If you allocate things by using WXCore functions they might 
not be released at the end of the program. You can use objectDelete (I 
believe) to release an object yourself. I never got rid of all the 
leaks but if I look at the number of bytes that are leaked it's okay.
