      A short time ago, I asked if anyone knew why the keypad functions did not 
seem to work in the terminal program Mac240, under Spectre GCR.  Many thanks to 
a correspondent (sorry - don't have your name here at work; hardcopy of msg is 
at home) who pointed me to the page in the GCR instructions on which David 
Small states that the extra keypad functions are NOT presently supported.

      Below is David Small's answer to my request for future keypad support.

Numeric keypad is fully supported in Spectre 2.65, the next release.
Things like Word and Excel that use it work just fine with it, so I 
expect Mac2420 to work okay too...

	-- thanks, Dave / Gadgets
