I posted this question a while ago, but got no answers. I can't
believe nobody knows, so it must be that everyone just assumed it was
too stupid a question to bother with. Well, I'd appreciate it if
someone would humor me and answer it (anyway).

What keycodes do the NeXT keypad keys generate, that I can bind to
functions in Emacs (I mean using the Emacs 2.1 frontend for emacs)?
I'm used to having a ton of function keys so as not to have to
remember what control-meta-cokebottle does, and the only candidates on
the NeXT are those (otherwise useless) keypad keys). But I can't see
any place where their codes are documented, and I seem to just get
numbers from them. Which I can't believe is the end of the story.

Oh, my keyboard is an old-style one.
