Use opt/ cmd Backspace in tkinter-CodePudding

I have a very simple notepad that is made out of the tk.text widget.

The only thing lacking is OPT/ CMD Backspace support on Mac (deleting lines and words).

Any way i could add support for it? either through tkinter directly or though a selfmade function?

EDIT: I also found out that navigating text using OPT and the arrow keys work, why it doesnt work in combination with Backspace i dont know.

CodePudding user response：

As it turns out, there are modifier keys that bound to Mac keys(source):

The Command and Option modifiers are equivalents of Mod1 resp. Mod2, they correspond to Macintosh-specific modifier keys.

this means that if you want to use CMD/ OPT on Mac you can use Mod1 & Mod2 like any other key:

import tkinter
from tkinter import ttk

root = tkinter.Tk()

def func(event):
    entry.insert(string="hello",index=0)

entry = ttk.Entry(root)
entry.bind("<Mod2-Return>",func) 
#if you press OPT Enter Key, hello gets inserted
entry.pack()

root.mainloop()
