Except, when `AltGr` (`Right Alt`) or `AltGr+Shift` (`Right Alt + Shift`) is pressed in combination with another key, other diacritics and symbols are accessible and some keys become dead keys. -In that way, it is - somehow - similar to the layout "United States-International" (on Windows), although this project moves all dead key combinations to the modifiers `AltGr` and `AltGr+Shift`. That way, this project solves the most typical issues, among which the quotes (' and ") can be used as usual (without pressing the spacebar afterwards), while the acute accent (´) and diaeresis (¨) are found on `AltGr+'` and `AltGr+Shift+"` respectively. This project has borrowed several aspects from the EurKEY Keyboard Layout (by Steffen Brüntjen). +In that way, it is - somehow - similar to the layout "United States-International" (on Windows), although this project moves all dead key combinations to the modifiers `AltGr` and `AltGr+Shift`.
