Hi,

I'd like to get the numeric keypad on my sun to work so that it, 
inserts numbers rather than using the arrow keys.

I realise that I can get numeric entry by holding the <SHIFT> key
down, but I'd like to be able to toggle between the arrow keys and
numeric entry mode.

Any help appreciated,
Pete
