[Idle-dev] KeyConfig, KeyBinding and other related issues.

[Saimadhav Heblikar]

Hi,
I followed the above direction and made some progress.
Lib/tkinter/__init__.py Line 998, gives some more info on the syntax
for keysequence.

https://gist.github.com/sahutd/289d2297eb83a020a6dd#file-test-keyseq-v2-diff.
It only covers a few exceptions. I am posting this early, before I am
far away in the wrong direction.

Also, is the key_ok method intended as a replacement for the existing
KeysOk method? Or are both going to exist?

Grouping required a single line of regex.
pat = '^<(?P<modifiers>(({modifier})-){{0,3}})(({type})-)?({detail})>$'.format(modifier=modifier_regex,type=type_regex,
detail=detail_regex)

For the above point, should key_ok method raise an error or return
False or display a tkMessageBox ?
