How unimaginative. How about: playing a game where one uses the
keypad to move the character, and one still wants numeric keys
to be repeat counts for things like rest?

I hate for my keypad to have numlock on. I use the keypad for
maneuvering around while editing.

So, one man's meat is another man's poison.

I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
