Hi!

I have an iBook and a PowerBook with an italian keyboard. Keys with
have 3 symbols each.
I need to type certain keys with the "right-something" key combination
(altgr on PC) or similar.
Some of these keys are crucial: @, #, [] and to a lesser extent €.

Just from my old emails in 2017 I sent to this list, and I can't verify it
works, because I don't have Debian installed any more to this machine,
so:
On a Powerbook 3.5 (Titanium IV) I might have set up the alt_gr key like so:

in
/etc/default/keyboard
a line something like
XKBOPTIONS="lv3:enter_switch"

??

.. not being sure, but somewhere in the thread the following message
is part of I mentioned that I tried to change
/etc/default/keyboard
to get the alt_gr behavior on a Macintosh.

Here's the "success" message:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-powerpc/2017/12/msg00024.html

Again: that's from 2017 ...

Good luck!
Wolfgang
