Good for you -- the software I use really feels better with separate
Alt and Meta keys, and the use I want really needs AltGr.
For example, I want Alt-[0-9] to switch between tabs in Epiphany and
Gaim, but Meta-[0-9] to switch between workspaces in Gnome. And I want
a separate Meta in GNU Emacs so that I can use Alt for my own
keybindings. Now I have it working, just want to make sure it is
system-wide, or in other words, how to keep Gnome from interfering again
with my X settings.
Besides, I really need AltGr to produce some extra characters, such as
the Euro, vowels with macron for Greek transliteration, etc.

So what would lswin_switch and alts_toggle mean?

There really should be a GUI util or a HOWTO document for that...
