hi, arturo.

You’re right.
This will NOT simulate or map “Alt gr”, but here we’re talking Macs and that key, if memory serves me well (I used to be PC user for 11 years) is PC/Windows specific.
What Mac users really long for is ALT, same as it is on the left side of the keyboard.

But wouldn’t it remap it to another Left Alt key?) I mean, the real ALT-Gr is another key completely.

I’m saying this because I tried this program the other day, and Left Alt worked exactly as a Left Alt, not Alt-GR.

DoubleCommand worked for this, but it is now incompatible with Leopard
