Does this actually work with OS X in KiCad, or just in OS X in general?
Last time I tried to use the python shell in KiCad on OS X you couldn't
enter any key that also was used as a command with a modifier button, and
when I tried to chase it down, it was actually a complicated Wx issue.

This also means that if it does not work in OS X, I do not want that to
hold this patch back.
