There were some recent tweaks to ensure consistent handling of AltGr and right-Alt and I was not aware of that section in the wiki (it was there before my time...). However, I do not reproduce your particular issue: > I have the following entry in ~/.inputrc > > "\e'": "`" # Alt+' -> ` > > and, as AltGr+' is not a valid combination in my keyboard layout, > until mintty 3.1.6 by pressing it I was obtaining the wanted backtick character. > However, since mintty 3.1.7, this key combination now produces nothing. Works for me when switching to US keyboard layout. Which layout do you use? > One has to explicitly use LeftALt+' to obtain the backtick. That is the proper way now enforced if the right Alt key is in fact AltGr. If it's not, right-Alt+' etc should work alike, as it does here. > This is inconvenient because one needs to use both hands, > while AltGr+' can be easily triggered with a single hand.
