Tcl/Tk 8.4 is quite old and no longer maintained; 8.6.x is current, 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.

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:

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".
