AltGr and cygwin (French keyboard)

[Benoit Ledoux]

This doesn't solve my problem!

I also have problems with my Num_lock:
    - In xterm, the Num_lock key is no taken in account. I can only type 
the numbers but can not yse the arrows, end insert....)
     - In rxvt, if the Num_lock is off I can  use the numbers otherwise 
every key press closes my terminal window
