Sorry Bjorn but in the Spanish layout # is Option+3, I am sure, uou you can
see it in the keyboard viewer and I type it everyday :)
If I open the vim shipped with MacOSX from terminal, it recognizes the
Option+3 as the # character. So this only affects MacVim.
 But ... after some testing I realized that the problem is that I am using
set macmeta, to use some keymaps with the M modifier.
This seems to cause that MacVim is not passing the Option(alt) modifier
properly for some key combinations, like the Option+3.
Without macmeta the keyboard works perfectly, but I need the macmeta :)
