I had a chance to use the Mac numeric keypad for a few minutes the
other day. It worked just fine with Version 1.1 of MacTerminal connected
to a VAX/VMS system. I tried it with the VMS keypad editor. All the keypad
functions, such as move by word, cut and paste worked fine. There are arrows
engraved on the "PF3" and "PF4" function keys and the "-" and "," keys. They
perform the VT100 arrow key function when the "Command" key is held down.
I feel the numeric keypad makes MacTerminal a very good VT100 substitute in
the VAX/VMS environment.
