in thread Eliminate blinking cursor from text widget

I take it from that you've been using a multi-line Text widget.

The problem I foresee is that whilst in a Text widget, a button-1 click sets the insertion cursor to the character under the mouse, if you make it readonly and disable the insertion cursor, will the button-1 binding still work?

I would use an 8x8 grid of Entry widgets. That way, each click identifies which symbol is clicked.
