A new solution for the problem is used and hopefully it'll solve the issue.... will test some more and then it's time to wrap up some fixes and do a new release.

Dear Mantainer

On a german keyboard there is a "AltGr" Modifier Key which
makes for example the "q" key output the "@" (At symbol),

Other keys have as well an additional meaning.

As soon as keys with that additional meaning are inside the
file for xnee --retype-file, they will be printed the wrong way.

Example:
The input File contains: (file xxyy2, used below)
# ABCabc {[]}\ 123 ~|@ 456

Will produce an output like:
# ABCabc 7890ß 123 +<q 456

The keys "{[]}\" "~|@"  are all the Printed keys with the "Alt Gr" modifier.

I use version 2.0.5 of Xnee.

I include the output of:

cnee --retype-file xxyy2 -v 2>cnee_debug.out
and the output of
xmodmap -pk and xmodmap
in the hope it will be useful

-------------

I tried to make changes myself, but got lost in generating
modifier Key presses after finding keysymbol in the output of keyXGetKeyboardMapping(dpy,kc,1,&symnum)


Best regards Thomas
