Summary: Keyboard shortcuts don't use the right keyboard layout

Initial Comment:
I have a french keyboard, and even though jEdit
regonises my keyboard properly when typing text, it
doesn't do so when entering keyboard shortcuts. For
instance, if I press 'z' it enters a 'z', but if I
press 'Ctrl+z' it closes the window! (ie. it executes
it as a 'Ctrl+w')

Other applications work fine.

Here's the output of the keyboard tester when I press 'z' :
-------------------

Event
KEY_PRESSED,keyCode=0x57,keyChar=0x7a,modifiers=0x0
filtered
Event KEY_TYPED,keyCode=0x0,keyChar=0x7a,modifiers=0x0
passed
==> Translated to <0,7a>
Event
KEY_RELEASED,keyCode=0x57,keyChar=0x7a,modifiers=0x0 passed

And here's the output when I press Ctrl+z:
-------------------

Event
KEY_PRESSED,keyCode=0x11,keyChar=0xffff,modifiers=0x2
filtered
Event
KEY_PRESSED,keyCode=0x57,keyChar=0x1a,modifiers=0x2 passed
==> Translated to C<0,77>
Event KEY_TYPED,keyCode=0x0,keyChar=0x1a,modifiers=0x2
filtered
Event
KEY_RELEASED,keyCode=0x57,keyChar=0x1a,modifiers=0x2 passed
Event
KEY_RELEASED,keyCode=0x11,keyChar=0xffff,modifiers=0x0
filtered

Try the new simplified keyboard handling of jedit 4.3pre5.
It might make your problem go away.
