Not a "hack", much less a "solution".

More of a (very informal) diagnostic tool.. I noticed that the OP's last
name has an accented 'é' in it.. so I'm wondering what kind of
'keyboard' (physical/logical) he's using.. what his Alt keys actually
do... you know.. thinking AltGr.. eightBitInput.. and such..

I know.. not really a diagnostic tool either.. hunch perhaps..? :-)
