Summary: Shift+Backspace exhibits odd behavior

Initial Comment:
On Windows, pressing Shift+Backspace while in an editor
window will act just like a regular Backspace will,
however under Linux (Gentoo 2006.0 and
Slackware-current), instead of deleting the caracter
before the cursor, it inserts "^B".

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think it'd be too
hard to fix this little annoyance.

(I would do it myself, but I'm not at all familiar with
IDLE's source layout)

Can't fix in IDLE by binding Shift-Key-BackSpace.

Using Python interpreter:

>>> import Tkinter
>>> root = Tkinter.Tk()
>>> text = Tkinter.Text()
>>> text.pack()

and try typing some char followed by
backspace and shift-backspace.

In Tcl shift-backspace works correctly.

Not an IDLE issue, appparently a Tkinter issue.

Right now there aren't a lot of IDLE developers.  It would
be great if you could work on a patch.
