Package: moc
Version: 1:2.5.0~alpha3+svn20080629-2
Severity: normal
Tags: l10n
On a UK keyboard <shift>3 gives the symbol £, not # as on a US keyboard
and <shift>2 gives " not @. I use a UK keyboard and my keymap file is
defined in ~/.moc/config as
Keymap = keymap
My keymap file is located at ~/.moc/keymap
and is completely default with the following exceptions:
go_to_fast_dir2 = "
go_to_fast_dir3 = £
If I start moc with this configuration it fails with the following
message
"FATAL_ERROR: Parse error in the keymap file line 101: bad key sequence"
Line 101 in my keymap file is "go_to_fast_dir3 = £"
I have also tried defining the keymap file location withg the full path
i.e. /home/julian/.moc/keymap with the same result.

So I close this bug as there won't be a fix and the use is quite
unusual....
