"""
MultiCall - a class which inherits its methods from a Tkinter widget (Text, for
example), but enables multiple calls of functions per virtual event - all
matching events will be called, not only the most specific one. This is done
by wrapping the event functions - event_add, event_delete and event_info.
MultiCall recognizes only a subset of legal event sequences. Sequences which
are not recognized are treated by the original Tk handling mechanism. A
more-specific event will be called before a less-specific event.
The recognized sequences are complete one-event sequences (no emacs-style
Ctrl-X Ctrl-C, no shortcuts like <3>), for all types of events.
Key/Button Press/Release events can have modifiers.
The recognized modifiers are Shift, Control, Option and Command for Mac, and
Control, Alt, Shift, Meta/M for other platforms.
For all events which were handled by MultiCall, a new member is added to the
event instance passed to the binded functions - mc_type. This is one of the
event type constants defined in this module (such as MC_KEYPRESS).
For Key/Button events (which are handled by MultiCall and may receive
modifiers), another member is added - mc_state. This member gives the state
of the recognized modifiers, as a combination of the modifier constants
also defined in this module (for example, MC_SHIFT).
Using these members is absolutely portable.
The order by which events are called is defined by these rules:
1. A more-specific event will be called before a less-specific event.
2. A recently-binded event will be called before a previously-binded event,
unless this conflicts with the first rule.
Each function will be called at most once for each event.
