Damn thing doesn't deal with the keypad correctly.  If I use
xmodmap to make Num Lock send the KP_F1 keysym, an xterm
should translate this to ESC[OP (or something like that).

All the xterm clones shipped with RH6.2 do this correctly.
Even Eterm does it correctly.  But fscking gnome-terminal
doesn't.

I know... "Stop whining and fix it".  Now where was all that
copious free time I had?

Later,
Kenn
