It would not be any fun for my app users if I had to change the
Tktable.py
source all by myself....
Here is another fix that involves calling Tk directly
instead of :
res = self.table.curselection()
I can do:
res = self.root.tk.call(self.table,'curselection')
root is the app top level ( self.table works also...)
for a row the above call will return something like
('2,0', '2,1', '2,2', '2,3', '2,4', '2,5', '2,6')
the "co-ordinate" strings in the above tuple can be used
as indices into the table to retreive the selection.
