I could enter it w/out any problem when I'm using the French layout.  
I looked through TextMate but couldn't find hat cmd-} is already  
taken. In the global shortcuts I couldn't find it as well. And if it  
would be, I wouldn't be able to enter it as well. I used the layout  
French and not French-numerical in the International preferences  
pane. Maybe that helps :)
