Re: [orca-list] Thoughts on restoring NumPad's numeric functionality for Desktop Layout?

[Alex Midence <alex midence gmail com>]

I vote for numpad restore too.  I love using it for numeric entries
far more than the number row.  I always seem to make mistakes when I
do.  I always wondered why it worked just fine in console mode with
Speakup but seemed to crap out on me in x.  I hope all other
keybindings will work as expected after pressing numlock off.  I
toggle this on and off as I work in windows without missing a beat.
............be awesome when I can do the same in Linux.
