We GNU Emacs 18.55.2 on VAX stations running ultrix 3.1 (UWS 2.1) which is 
X11. At present we are not able to direct input from keypad (e.g., PF1 etc)
and bind these keys to certain functions. At present, it ignores PF1 etc keys
while numeric keys come out as a the numeric digit  and not an escape 
sequence.

My questions is: Is it possible at all to make gnuemacs see the keypad as
application keypad and not numeric keypad. Do we have to recompile it?
Can I set something up in .Xdefault to do this? Or can I make a .Xkeyboard
file (as we could in X10) so that those keys are mapped to a specific
escape sequence.

Please reply directly to patel@ecs.umass.edu

Thanks in advance.
