I am running both of these programs on a Macbook Pro

Now Mac people will know that there is no # key and you have to ALT 3 to get it.

This works fine on Q-EmuLator the ALT 3 produces the # character as expected.

Not the same for OPC2 unfortunately , I am running this Windows program under WINE (through Play on MAC), when the initial configuration window comes up if I select devices and obtain a text box the ALT 3 works a charm producing # characters, however when getting past the configuration and into QPC2 proper i.e. QL emulation enhanced, the ALT 3 just produces 3. I cannot seem to get the # character at all in QPC2.

Any ideas?

How about using the ALTKEY command to set it.

I used it extensively in those days long ago, have I missed something,'cos I'd love to have the same feature in windows ?

Any ideas ?

When you are running SMSQ/E you can use HOT_KEY instead.

Another way to control the keyboard from within SMSQ/E is found in clavier_zip on Dilwyn's site. This tool from Wolfgang Lenerz lets you redefine most keys and can be made part of the boot program.
