Tcl/Tk 8.4 is quite old and no longer maintained; 8.6.x is current, although 8.5.x is also still in use. http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.6/TkCmd/keysyms.htm Alas, there are an unfortunately large number of platform differences in Tk behavior across the various platforms it supports, primarily Windows, X11, and OS X. Among other resources, there is a useful wiki page that tries to enumerate keyboard and keyboard modifier differences across platforms: http://wiki.tcl.tk/28331 Also, in addition to effbot's venerable Tkinter documentation, more up-to-date material is available at Mark Roseman's TkDocs website and in his e-book "Modern Tkinter". http://www.tkdocs.com -- Ned Deily, n...@acm.org -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
