Hmmm, let me see.  I suspect that you want to define keys within, say, a
command or shell tool right?  Well, if that is the case then you should
look at loadkeys(1).  In a nutshell, one may define keys to send a
sequence of characters to the standard output thus:

+== vtkeypad ===================================+
| key 45   base "^[OP"                          |
| key 46   base "^[OQ"                          |
| key 47   base "^[OR"                          |
| key 68   base "^[Ow" shift 7                  |
| key 69   base "^[Ox" shift string+uparrow     |
| key 70   base "^[Oy" shift 9                  |
| key 71   base "^[OS"                          |
| key 91   base "^[Oz" shift string+leftarrow   |
| key 93   base "^[Ov" shift string+rightarrow  |
| key 113  base "^[Or" shift string+downarrow   |
+===============================================+

Assume you have a file like the one shown above.  You may redefine your
keyboards right keypad by using the command "loadkeys vtkeypad".  Of
course you can substitute any string for those shown above.

I believe one may find a list of all the key numbers in the files
/usr/share/lib/keytables/layout_??

Good luck!
