In the celtk source, this message is attached to the on-key-down of the tk-object slot.
"Long story. Tcl C API weak for keypress events. This gets dispatched eventually thanks to DEFCOMMAND"
Do you remember what this was all about? My first thought was that perhaps tk only generated keypress events instead of splitting them into keyup/keydown but the docs on the bind command seem to suggest you can catch them seperately.
What's the skinny?
Cheers, Andy

Scrap that. I've just found another comment in the source that explains it more fully. Sorry for the noise.

Not at all, and I would appreciate it if you would keep this quiet, I do not want to get a reputation for documenting anything.
I had to go track it down myself -- ah, yes, keysyms vs. keypresses.
You know I am doing cells-qx, yes? I saw something that says Safari will let you drag and drop a web page into a desktop application? How sick is that? I think OpenAIR just got a tad easier.
