Hi all,

I'm writing a small GUI on OS X (v. 10.7.4) using Tkinter.  I'm using
stock Python.  It mostly works fine but there is a bug in Entry
widgets: if and Entry widget has focus and I press the UP arrow, a
"\uf700" gets inserted in the widget.  If I press the DOWN arrow, a
"\uf701" gets inserted.

I'm very inexperienced with Tkinter (I've never used it before).  All
I'm looking for is a workaround, i.e. a way to somehow suppress that
output.

Thanks in advance,
