      Some keys on the numpad do not behave correctly.
      For example, the '*' and '+' keys do not work
      properly whether NUM-LOCK is on or off. Also,
      the '/', '-' and '.' keys do not behave correctly
      when the SHIFT key has been pressed.

      The problems can be observed by running the
      applet

      ###@###.### (Jan 10, 1998):
      Here are my findings: *, /, -, and . will only print when NUMLOCK=on;
      when in addition to NUMLOCK=on the SHIFT-key is pressed, these character
      will no longer print. The +-key will print + only when SHIFT is pressed,
      and will print = otherwise; this behavior is not affected by the state
      of NUMLOCK. Related bugs: 4083691 and 4087994.
