Ctrl+Alt+'char' generates other chars then 'AltGr' (Germany Layout) v0.11.1121.0 #5525
Description
Environment
Windows build number: Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.19041.0
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): v0.11.1121.0
Steps to reproduce
In german keyboard layout type Ctrl+Alt+< (or any other key that has a 3rd char on it).
Expected behavior
Shows the same as AltGr+<
the pipe char: |
Actual behavior
Shows the # hash sign.
Additional remarks
This started on v0.11 till the fixing of AltGr months ago, this didn't happen till today.
On german keyboard layout at least, AltGr+key and Ctrl+Alt+key always return the same char.
some other examples on pwsh:
| Key | AltGr | Ctrl+Alt |
|---|---|---|
| < | Pipe | # |
| q | @ | " |
| e | € | € |
| 7 | { | ^[ |
| 8 | [ | ^[ |
| 9 | ] | + |
| + | ~ | & |
cmd in terminal returns also different chars but other (mostly ^] or ^\)
wsl doesn't support Ctrl+Alt at all, but I don't need it there and I'm not sure, if it worked there till v0.11,
I mostly recognized this problem while typing PowerShell, cause its way faster to create the | (pipe) using Ctrl+Alt+< on the left side of the keyboard then AltGr+< cause this would require two hands.
