As an aside: I have several keyboards with no # key. That makes typing
G-code and commenting many languages rather harder than it needs to
be.
I have a § key, and that is the first time I have used it in 30 years
of messing with computers. Why couldn't they have used that instead
(or, possibly, have put the £ where the § is, rather than where the #
is)

In some of the virtual machines I use, or when using VNC literally the
only way to get a # on the remote machine is to find one somewhere
else and copy-paste it.
