You, for example, use <AltGr> but I also see this written as > <AltGr->. Means the same thing, I suspect. That is, <AltGr-> means "press and hold the AltGr key" while pressing another key. Thus, AltGr-c means "press and hold 'AltGr' and then press 'c'". Alternatively, AltGr-c is the same as AltGr+c.
