Earlier on this year or late last year I had similar problems (with extendedA and B characters). I finally dropped the idea. As far as I can remember from googling the web for a solution is that this problem was/is due to brokenness of Tk (Tk Aqua) on the newer MacOSs. A reference I just refound: http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Mail/Message/tcl-mac/2865240 My problems were with Python 2.3.5 with Tcl/Tk 8.4. I do not follow the development on MacOS regularly, so I cannot tell you the current state of affairs.
