Follow-up Comment #3, bug #25397 (project gnustep):
Since AltGr is not part of the OpenStep/Cocoa API, I see two possible options
here:
1) Just ignore that AltGr key is pressed
2) Set NSAlternateKeyMask
I'm not really sure about what is the better approach here. It looks like
Apple and NeXT did follow the latter approach (however, having no running
OpenStep or Rhapsody for Windows at hand, I cannot really prove this, it is
just what I read from the OpenStep documentation and Apple's older AppKit
release notes).
However, setting NSControlKeyMask definitely looks wrong to me. After
googling for VK_CONTROL a bit, it seems that Windows does indeed send that
modifier (for whatever reason). Maybe setting NSControlKeyMask only when
VK_LCONTROL or VK_RCONTROL is set is an option.
