Re: Hash key on Macbook Pro (OSX 10.11.6)

Hi Jonny,

     Yes - this is the code segment being used:

       case SDL_TEXTINPUT:
            i = 0;
            while (ev.text.text[i] != '\0')
              putkey(ev.text.text[i++]) ;
            break ;

Regards,

     Peter

That laptop has no direct key for the Hash (#) character, and I normally need to press ALT-3 to get that character. But it appears SDL is trapping the ALT key, so preventing me using that character - unless I cut-and-paste it from another Mac application.
