On my k/board alt-gr is nearer to the cursor keys, so it would be handy to have at least alt-gr left and alt-gr right for forwards/back.

Alt-gr? I'm sorry, I've never heard of that key.... however, I'm going to confirm this and hope the keyboard navigation group knows more keys then I do.

Hint: it's usually just to the right of the space bar.

Also, getch() returns the following values: Alt-gr and left cursor: 260 Alt-gr and right cursor: 261 Alt-gr, up: 259 Alt-gr,down: 258 For other keys with alt-gr, sometimes graphics characters are returned, sometimes nothing. E.g. Alt-gr, b=='ð' (240) Alt-gr, f=='ð' (240) Alt-gr, d returns nothing. So I suggest only the cursor keys be implemented. Also, alt-gr has no effect when pressed with the keypad, i.e. keypad keys are returned unchanged. I'm changing the title to indicate that only the cursor keys should be affected.

I believe this is now a dup of bug 55759. Please close it.
