To re-map the numeric keypad from numbers to escape sequences, would you do it
in the

a: client
b: window manager
c: server
d: all of the above
e: none of the above
f: a and b
g: b and c
h: a and c

I think the answer is f. This leaves me with a problem. I want to re-map emacs'
X window to accept escape sequences from the numeric keypad. Emacs does not
have any resources to re-map keys. I am using twm and I can only may keys to
functions (no of which send characters to the window) and I can't figure
out how
to map keys in only some windows and not in all of them. I am running emacs
on several machines so I am looking for a solution that is portable. Does
anybody have any ideas?

Thanks.
