Alt Gr?

What is Gr?
[/b]
The Alt key just to the right of the space bar is defined as ALT Gr (but don't ask me why :bleh: )

You are lucky that at the key combo of Alt + G correspond nothing or ....

Btw to toggle between windows and full screen every ALT key is good (no matter if 'gr' or not, at the right or at the left of space bar) + ENTER

Alt Gr is the right alt-key , at right of spacebar
(en mi idioma: es la tecla Alt de la derecha de la barra espaciadora)

In short: (very short)
Alt Gr means Alt+Graphics.
The normal people of this world use the Alt Gr for: |@#^{}€[]´`~, only the Alt is used for keybshortcuts on those, keybshortcuts don't work with Alt Gr.

On some really weird keyboards the Alt Gr = Alt (US-EN). US keyboards use Ctrl+Alt instead of the normal Alt Gr.

I'd like to add:
Alt+Ctrl also works as Alt Gr on keyboards that have the Alt Gr-button. k:

And I'd like to add I never use the Alt GR button for switching full screen on/off, because just Alt+Enter work as well (and I'm more used of using just alt - to the left of the space bar).
