Apparently, this behaviour is the intended one, at least for buttons; see: http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.4/TkCmd/bind.htm#M11 As for the question "why?", maybe you should ask it on the c.l.tcl newsgroup? -- python -c "print ''.join([chr(154 - ord(c)) for c in 'U(17zX(%,5.zmz5(17l8(%,5.Z*(93-965$l7+-'])" -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
