Works perfectly.

Also works, however, I discovered if I leave out 'Lock' it
still works with caps on.  It also works with caps off while
holding either Shift key and hitting Alt-q.  I tested it with
Python 2.7 and 3.4.

Well at least I can cut the number of lines down to two per
binding like this:

        root.bind("<Alt-q>", quit)
        root.bind("<Alt-Q>", quit)

Once again I am in your debt.  Thank you.
