note that you're assigning all buttons to the same instance variable, so
even if the above did work, it would always return a plus.
since the command callback doesn't know what widget it was called
from, you need to create a separate callback for each widget. here's
one way to do that:
for x in range(4):
for y in range(4):
text = i[t] # label text
def callback():
self.pressed(text)
buttonx = Button(self, text=text, width=10, command=callback)
buttonx.grid( row=x+1, column = y, sticky = W+E+S)
the "def callback" statement creates a small dispatcher which calls your
original key handler with the widget's text as the argument.
def pressed(self, text):
print "PRESSED", text
