I tried XTerm*VT100 translations but these were ignored in `keypad-mode'
although they worked fine in normal mode.  Is there perhaps another resource
option for translations in this mode?

What do you do with applications that switch to keypad-mode and don't
provide ways to remap keys?

Does anyone have a full list of VT100 control codes?

Thanks again.
