The only shortfall is that you lose keyboard shortcut functionality when
enabling multipress.

Old skool point and click to save!

It would be cool if there was some sort of auto-loading input method
preference in the prefs.

Title:
  Gedit 'hash' symbol missing in MAC OS X port

Status in Mactel Support:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Hi Gedit community.  
  [GEdit version: 2.28.3]

  First can I say thank you for doing a MAC port, great effort.
  However, there is a REALLY SERIOUS error in that the 'hash' symbol -
  alt-3 on UK (British) keyboards does not work. I use gedit every day
  on my Linux machine and was delighted to discover a MAC port had been
  developed - yipee, I can do all my editing with the same great tool on
  all my computers :)  However, imagine my surprise when trying the MAC
  port for the first time and attempting to write C/C++ code, only to
  find the # symbol is not available!! making (OS X) gedit useless for
  programming.

  I did discover that it is possible to add a # symbol using the built-
  in TextEdit app, then copy and paste hash symbol into Gedit, but that
  is really not a reasonable solution.

  I realise that the majority of users are on Linux and that Mac users
  are probably in the minority, but if this can be fixed soon I would be
  grateful.  I would like to use the same great editor on all my
  machines.

  Thanks in anticipation.
  Alan Lewis
