It's actually more work to sift through the changes. Too many of them. Besides, since this is an exercise for me to learn the source code, it's more beneficial for me to follow the codepath and see what's happening. I've come up with a fix for the problem. The issue resides in EFL, not in the Enlightenment source. In the EFL source tree, edit the src/lib/ecore_x/xlib/ecore_x.c file, and comment out the following line: ECORE_X_MODIFIER_ALTGR = _ecore_x_key_mask_get(XK_Mode_switch) It's not root cause of the issue, but it'll fix things for you. It will also break the AltGr key, for those that have keyboards with it. Yep, there's always a compromise.
