I don't know why the original poster reports that the bindings sometimes fire. My guess is that it's related to keyboard focus -- maybe the window doesn't have focus when the user thinks it does, so the event never goes to the application. However, I can say for certain why "break" is unnecessary and why the letter "s" is inserted when they press alt-s. In the original code the user is binding alt-s to the root window. Such bindings are at the end of the bindtags for a given window. Thus, the class bindings (where the insert actually happens) fire _before_ the root window bindings. Thus, the character gets inserted, _and then_ the root binding fires. Returning "break" is useless at this point because the character has already been inserted into the widget. _______________________________________________ Tkinter-discuss mailing list Tkinter-discuss@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tkinter-discuss
