The trick is to make a ".Xkeymap" file that defines the keypad keys to
send out escape sequences.  Read the man entry for keycomp.  I had to
peruse the source code for the Sun-specific part of X to find out what
numbers in the keymap corresponded to the application keys.  If you
are using a Sun, I can mail you the lines I added to my keymap to get the
application keys to mail the same codes that they send when my machine
isn't running X.
