Actually, Bill K.'s already added a feature that would probably work in this 
case. Try running the game with the "--keypad" option:

tuxmath --keypad

And you'll find a handy keypad overlay ;-)

(also, you can see we already have some of the possible options available as 
command line switches by passing the option "-h"

tuxmath -h )
