bash & french keyboard in b18 under W95/NT4

I got the cygnus NT port of the GNU unix tools and I am very happy with
them. However there is one very annoying problem:
I am using a french keyboard where I have to enter some special
characters with the [Alt Gr] key (|, [, ], {, }, @). But in the bash
prompt this does not work. That means that I can't even pipe two
commands together, which makes the shell nearly useless.

Do you know any fix/workaround for this?

Thanx a lot
