From what I know of the differences between US and British keyboards, US has
an extra key to the left of the "1" that has a grave "`" and a tilde "~" -
and British have an extra key on the home row immediately beside the enter
key with the British Pound and Tilde on that key. When you remapped the
keyboard, what two characters does this key now produce?
If you want the Pound to be ALT-3, you can use a script with a program
called AutoHotKey. The script would look like this:
!3::Send,{ASC 0163}
--Draco
