#25 Enable directional and Ins/Del keys on numeric keypad

[Anonymous]

For about 20 years now I have used the arrow keys and Home/PgUp/End/PgDn/Ins/Del on the numeric keypad. These keys do not work on the Mac, they produce numbers only. Since I use the number keys located below the function keys on the main part of the keyboard to enter numbers, I only want the numeric keypad to produce the directional keys,

Of course, if you could actually make the NumLock work as it's supposed to, that would be great.

In case you don't have a PC keyboard handy, this is the mapping I want (all keys on the numeric keypad):

7 - Home
8 - Up arrow
9 - PgUp
4 - Left arrow
5 - (Dead Key)
6 - Right Arrow
1 - End
2 - Down arrow
3 - PgDn
0 - Ins
. - Del

Please try to make this work if you can, I am so frustrated with not being able to use these keys as I have for the last two decades!

Hey there, I added patch that did just that for me. Thanks for the suggestion... now I have a Mac with the same layout as my Windows boxes!
