Here's a solution that I've used.  I wrote a TSR which will replace
your keystrokes with deranged equivalents whenever the Scroll Lock
is on.  One of the remappings is the numbers into box chars (in
a somewhat reasonable way based on their location on the numeric
keypad) which you could then type directly into your text editor.
Unfortunately, however, many editors just don't allow direct input
of these types of characters...  if it does, then you may be in luck. 
If anyone's interested in trying it out, I'll uuencode it or make
it available for ftp.
