        Bind ``macroName`` to all widgets in ``appletObj``.

        This method does not affect the key bindings of other applets,
        or other instances of the same applet.

        The ``keysequence`` can be specified either as a string (eg
        '<ctrl>+x <ctrl>+f'), or a list of tuples containing the
        constants from the ``QtCore.Qt`` name space
        (eg. [(ControlModifier, Key_X), (ControlModifier, Key_F)]), or
        as a ``QtmacsKeysequence`` object.

        * ``keysequence`` (**str**, **list** of **tuples**,
          **QtmacsKeysequence**):
          key sequence to activate ``macroName`` for specified
          ``widgetSignature``.
        * ``macroName`` (**str**): the macro to associated with
          ``keysequence``.
        * ``appletObj`` (**QtmacsApplet**): only widgets in this
          applet are affected.

        |Returns|

          successfully bound.

        |Raises|

        * **QtmacsArgumentError** if at least one argument has an invalid type.

          could not be parsed.
