You need to file a bug against gedit in gnome. The mactel-support group
has nothing to do with that.

Bug description:
Hi Gedit community.
[GEdit version: 2.28.3]
First can I say thank you for doing a MAC port, great effort. However, there
is a REALLY SERIOUS error in that the 'hash' symbol - alt-3 on UK (British)
keyboards does not work. I use gedit every day on my Linux machine and was
delighted to discover a MAC port had been developed - yipee, I can do all my
editing with the same great tool on all my computers :) However, imagine my
surprise when trying the MAC port for the first time and attempting to write
C/C++ code, only to find the # symbol is not available!! making (OS X) gedit
useless for programming.
I did discover that it is possible to add a # symbol using the built-in
TextEdit app, then copy and paste hash symbol into Gedit, but that is really
not a reasonable solution.
I realise that the majority of users are on Linux and that Mac users are
probably in the minority, but if this can be fixed soon I would be grateful. I
would like to use the same great editor on all my machines.
Thanks in anticipation.
Alan Lewis
