Actually it basically does the same that Alt+Ctrl keys hit together and
the main use is to have 3 characters available on many keys. Take for
example the 2 or E keys on a Spanish keyboard:

       2 = 2
       Shift+2 = "
       AltGr+2 = @

       E = e
       Shift+E = E
       AltGR+E = €

Cheers,
