Package: emacs21
Version: 21.3+1-9
Severity: important


Hi !

My xkb modifier map looks like:

    modifier_map Shift  { Shift_L , Shift_R };
    modifier_map Lock   { Caps_Lock };
    modifier_map Control{ Control_L, Control_R };
    modifier_map Mod1   { Meta_L, Meta_R };
    modifier_map Mod3   { Alt_R };
    modifier_map Mod4   { ISO_Level3_Shift };
    modifier_map Mod2   { Num_Lock };
    modifier_map Mod5   { Scroll_Lock };

For some reason, in X (works in console, and works fine with xemacs
too), emacs keeps considering my ISO_Level3_Shift as another "Meta".
That is, I can't obtain the symbols that are normally obtained with an
ISO_Level3_Shift + key combo. Emacs "interprets" it apparently as
Meta-key.

This basically prevents me from typing |,{,} and other things totally
useless to a C programmer :)

Ben.
