      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      Certain key combinations cannot be entered from a Danish keyboard.

      Atleast '|' (alt gr-?) nothing is inserted, '~' (alt gr-?) nothing is inserted and ',' (on numerical keyboard) is inserted at a 'square' [decimal separator for danish localization].

      Also neither '?' nor '^' can be entered from the keyboard.

      Both work perfectly in a terminal window.
