Subject: AltGr key combination recognition
Date: Mon, 16 Dec 2013 13:11:02 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131216211102.GB28400@jamhome.us> (raw)

My freshly installed zsh[1] does not accept AltGr character input. 
A search of the list archives shows that other people have successfully
used AltGr keyboard mappings, though the messages were from 2005 - 2008.

The FAQ also states:
   If you have a recent X Window System installation, you might find the
   AltGr key helps you input accented Latin characters; for example on
   my keyboard AltGr-;

I am using the grml zsh config, but a "zsh -d" shell exhibits the same problem.

Would someone with a working AltGr setup please share what was needed to enable it. 


[1] v5.0.2 on Arch Linux, the AltGr keys combinations to produce ñ ¿ ... 
in Xapps like web browsers and Libre Office.
