Hmm, I've tried to avoid doing this since I'm used to Option being the Meta key (IIRC that's the default both in Cocoa Emacs and Aquamacs). I'm just surprised how no one seems to have a good answer for this. I've googled for it and trawled through Stack overflow and all the "solutions" are all hacks. The same issue comes up in Terminal where in the settings you can bind Option to meta (you can then use emacsy meta shortcuts like meta-f forward-word in the shell), but this will again result in # not being available. Maybe switching to a US keymap is the easiest way around this... It's just surprising to me that the hash key, which is used in so many programming languages, is broken by default on OS X in the UK. > (My full emacs config tree is here: http://github.com/purcell/emacs.d) I'll have a look.
