                          type of event to bind,

            :param handler: A callable object to be invoked when the
                          event is delivered to self.  Pass None to
                          disconnect an event handler.

                          different window than self, but you still
                          want to catch it in self.  (For example, a

                          controls.

                       of instance.

            :param id2: Used when it is desirable to bind a handler
