Binding “§” key to button in Python

Question

I try to bind key § to a function:

top.bind("§", lambda x: startRecognition(v, label2, top))

However, this binding with key § is not working. It is an actual key on Mac keyboard by the way.

Other keys on the keyboard are working with this code, so it is clearly a problem either with the key "§" itself or the symbol '§'. Anyone knows?

I'm using Sublime text editor by the way

Answer 1

Apparently, the appropriate binding for the section sign key (§) is <section> :

top.bind("<section>", lambda x: startRecognition(v, label2, top))

To discover it, we bound <Key> (any key), then noted the event.keysym from events that involved that key.
