Two things:
1. My pound sign is a hash in X. Works fine in the console.
From XF86Config-4:Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Generic Keyboard" Driver "keyboard" Option "CoreKeyboard" Option "XkbRules" "xfree86" Option "XkbModel" "logicordless" Option "XkbLayout" "gb" EndSection
2. I have a Logitech cordless keyboard. I'd like to assign some of the
"special" keys in Sawfish. When I use xev, I get events generated e.g.
KeyPress event, serial 27, synthetic NO, window 0x2400001, root 0x40, subw 0x2400002, time 673540, (18,21), root:(63,139), state 0x0, keycode 162 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 bytes: ""
KeyRelease event, serial 27, synthetic NO, window 0x2400001, root 0x40, subw 0x2400002, time 673733, (18,21), root:(63,139), state 0x0, keycode 162 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 bytes: ""
KeyPress event, serial 27, synthetic NO, window 0x2400001, root 0x40, subw 0x2400002, time 674085, (18,21), root:(63,139), state 0x0, keycode 164 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 bytes: ""
KeyRelease event, serial 27, synthetic NO, window 0x2400001, root 0x40, subw 0x2400002, time 674259, (18,21), root:(63,139), state 0x0, keycode 164 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 bytes: ""
But when I go into gnomecc to configure the shortcuts, and click "grab", it doesn't respond when I press the key.
If anyone can shed any light I'd be very grateful.

In your home directory create a file called .Xmodmap. My looks like: keycode 115 = F15 keycode 178 = F16 keycode 236 = F17
map your keycodes (162, 164 etc) to spare function keys, then run xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap.
Sawfish will now grab them as F15 etc
To make sure this file is read everytime you log into Gnome, in the file /etc/X11/Xsession.options, put the line:
allow-user-modmap
This works for me.
