And also I wanted to get the spelling of musique right.
We don't have an "Alt Gr" key... just "Alt" and "Alt," same on both sides. I don't use this particular feature (character map ftw), but I believe it's common here to have to type in a code to get a special character, like Alt+0193 to get an "é" or similar.

Yeah, I have some idea what it's meant to do, but as you say, 99% of the time I find it more of a hindrance than a help.
