Send key combination with python

Question

I want to be able to send the key combination SHIFT + CTRL + . (dot) using the following code:

import win32com.client as comclt
wsh= comclt.Dispatch("WScript.Shell")
wsh.SendKeys()

So far I was able to send CTRL + . (dot) like this :

wsh.SendKeys(^.)

How do I add the SHIFT key there ?

Thanks to anyone who answers :)

To specify that a combination of SHIFT, CTRL, and ALT should be held down while several other keys are pressed, create a compound string argument with the modified keystrokes enclosed in parentheses. For example, to send the keystroke combination that specifies that the SHIFT key is held down while:

e and c are pressed, send the string argument "+(ec)".
e is pressed, followed by a lone c (with no SHIFT), send the string argument "+ec". ...
