What's the fourth level? Not alt, that's used for accelerators. Not

You still haven't answered the education question.
It's usually "Alt Gr" or "AltGr" (alternative graphic) and that is (again,
*usually*) the "right alt" key. My keyboard has it labelled that way, so it is
not intended for accelerators.
I did, in fact, know that :-), and I understand that's typical of non-US
keyboards. My US keyboard however has two keys labeled "Alt". Both of
them do, in fact, work to activate the menu (or other accelerators).
...which is the point I was trying to make to Nicolas; when dealing with
current US keyboards, there is no precedent for a compose key. That's a
lot of inertia to overcome, and (to respond to Nicolas' other comment),
there IS NO EDUCATION SYSTEM IN PLACE right now, that I am aware of.
I keep waiting for a proposal to fix that. I haven't heard one yet.
(Bill: I've sort of hijacked your post, sorry about that :-).)
