[issue27193] Tkinter Unresponsive With Special Keys

[Ned Deily]

Ned Deily added the comment:

Tkinter is essentially just a think wrapper around the Tk graphical toolkit. Keyboard modifier mappings are handled by Tk (or OS X), and not Tkinter.  Unfortunately, for various reasons, how Tk handles keyboard modifiers varies somewhat among OS platforms (Windows-native, X11-based, and OS X-native) and even between versions of Tk on the same platform.  One source for more detailed information about modifier key differences is the following Tk wiki page:
