Thanks a lot - your updated xxe.jar fixed the Alt key (and also
Shift-Alt key) problem!

I assume there is a similar reason why Unicode combining chars also
behave erroneous? Test (still on the Mac):
Select one of the Unicode key layouts (North S?mi, Norwegian Extended,
USA Extended), and type the following: 'c' followed by 'Shift-Alt-c'.
While Alt-c gives the dead key cedilla (which can combine with a c as
the next input char to give ?) in standard MacOS/Cocoa/Carbon apps,
Shift-Alt-c gives the combining diacritic that combines with the
preceeding char to produce a new char (which may or may not be an
existing precomposed char in Unicode).
If you do the above in the styled view in XXE, the normal dead key will
give you nothing (as explained in the previous mail), while the
combining diacritic will give you a square, and make the cursor be
badly disaligned.
Thanks a lot again for the quick turnaround! Looking forward to see
your fix included in the regular download:-)
