[issue3493] No Backslash (\) in IDLE 1.2.2

[Ronald Oussoren]

Ronald Oussoren <ronaldoussoren at mac.com> added the comment:

Do I understand it correctly when I write that you normally use "Option+Slash" to enter a backslash on your keyboard?

That would explain why updating the keyboard bindings makes it possible to type a backslash.

I'm not sure how we could fix this issue in a way that wouldn't break existing bindings for folks with an english keyboard (as just updating the default keybindings would likely upset those people).
