When saving a game, if you use the number pad to put in numeric keys or mathmatical expressions, it throws in a consistent extra character before the intended number.

b0
Y1
Z2
[3
\4
]
5
^6
_7
'8
a9
W+
V-
U*
T/

The number or math symbol itself only appears as well if NumLock is on. Otherwise only the odd character appears.

This was originally posted on the Phorum and I can recreate it with the 2018-07-30 build:

My guess is this is a longer-standing bug that no one has noticed before.

    hmm, seems to be another regression caused by the switch to SDL2. Old SDL1.2 builds still work as expected.

    I have a working fix in the development branch. When this branch is bugfixed enough, this will be fixed. I also applied a similar fix for notebook.
