Apparently that's country specific. I've never seen a German keyboard *without* an AltGr key. > As it turns out, MacBooks don't have an > AltGr at all. Instead, they only have Apple and Return.

However, it would be easy to solve, since the key I called "the strange key" (apparently it is meant to be the old "ENTER" in addition (!) to the big RETURN key) could easily be used as AltGr. This wouldn't irritate anyone since appart from a symbol that is crpytic to me and that I have never noticed anywhere else before, there is nothing printed on it. So it probably wouldn't irritate anyone to put AltGr on it, and it would be quite in the position where the average German user would expect it to be. > Perhaps a .Xmodmap file remapping that > Return key to AltGr could work, but I don't know .Xmodmap syntax to do > it. I agree, but I wouldn't know how to do it either.
