alt gr key doesn't behave normally #26

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. connect to a remote server
2. press alt gr+e; alt gr+3; alt gr+ 6, etc
3. nothing happens

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
characters like €, # or ¬ should be written, instead nothing happens

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

This happens with FuTTY-2012-06-12.exe and FuTTY-2012-06-22.exe  , older builds 
work just fine.
I'm using windows 7 64-bits. remote servers have utf8 encoding.

Please provide any additional information below.

If this is caused by a new option I don't know what can cause it, I tried 
disabling new ctrl+tab behaviour, but the behaviour is the same.

The keyboard uses a Spanish layout.

Doesn't work with Scandinavian keyboards (Finnish, Swedish etc) either.

This is a rather serious flaw since I can't type any of |, {, }, [, ], ~ (among 
others) without AltGr.

Same here with a german keyboard, in this case futty is totally useless for me.

I just figured out it's the 'Right-Alt acts as it is' patch that screws up the 
AltGr functionality.

You can uncheck it on the Terminal > Keyboard config page.

Confirming the fix, thanks for sharing.

I'm suggesting to turn it off by default and/or renaming the checkbox to not 
cause this regression and confuse european users.

"Right-Alt acts as it is" now defaults to disabled (unchecked).
