other than applications such as those written for VMS, which know all
about the vt100 keypad, most just rely on having the terminal send
something that they might understand (hence the popularity of the
PC-style bindings which send cursor keys).  I modified xterm to make
NumLock send numbers because it is useful to be able to override that.
(I use it every time I balance my checking).
