IDLE for win32 does not execute keyboard shortcuts when CAPS LOCK is on or the SHIFT key is is pressed. e.g. ctrl-C doesn't work if it's a capital C.

Logged In: YES user_id=149084 That's correct. Don't do that :-) This is the way the keyboard and tcl/tk works. If you really want this, customize using the options menu. It's possible to have more than one keycode bound to an event.
