My new laptop has a bit of an unusual German keyboard layout where the < key is located to the right of AltGr (see image below). This makes typing \|
(AltGr+ß followed by AltGr+<) really really hard (and when typing math-stuff in LaTeX, this happens really really often). Then, I found out that all the AltGr-combinations can be replaced by Ctrl+Alt-combinations. On my machine this works for all AltGr-combinations EXCEPT AltGr+<.
So my first question is: Why? Why would Ctrl+Alt+* work for all keys except <? And my second question is whether it is possible (preferably but not necessarily without external software) to map AltGr+´ to AltGr+< to make typing \|
easier?
