     (gtk-signal-connect entry "key-press-event"
             (lambda (event)
               (if (= 65293 (gdk-event-keyval event)) ; GDK_Return
               (begin
                 (handle-your-string entry)
                 (gtk-widget-destroy window)))

I don't know that the keysyms are available at the guile level - I had 
to translate from gdkkeysyms.h :)
