	Not "." but "," -- separate arguments

	Anything that is a method in a class object will tend to receive the
object itself as the first argument (commonly called "self" in Python, "me"
in Visual BASIC, "this" in C++). Tk callback functions (I think you were
using Tkinter) likely pass the event data (that is, what triggered the
callback -- a key-in callback passes information about the key that was
pressed).

>Define all event handlers this way?

	If they are methods of a Tk class, then likely they need this format...
But for classes you create yourself, it depends on how you intend to invoke
them.

>Define only the event handlers that will be called from
>elsewhere in the code, as in this case?

	Uhm... If an event handler is never invoked, why write it?
