This does not really help if you don't know which morph actually gets the
shortcut definitions.
In my example I did the same mistake, even if you instantiate a
RubScrolledTextMORPH the object
that processes the keyevents is actually a RubEditingArea, accessible
through
(RubScollredTextMorph) self textArea. ( if you are working with a spec
TextModel this you need to call it two times
t:= TextModel new.

t textArea textArea " : - ("

@Johan, as above, the "correct" morph for processing the keyevents is the
textArea of the RubScrolledTextMorph,
this should work
| window text |
text := RubScrolledTextMorph new.
"define a custom shortcut - notice the call to textArea"
text textArea removeKeyCombination: $s command.
text textArea on:$s command do:[
text setText: text text asString reverse].
window := StandardWindow new.
window addMorph: text fullFrame: (0@0 corner: 1@1) asLayoutFrame.
window title: 'Example'.
window openInWorld.
