How can I make emacs accept the period/dot from the keypad and insert a “.” into the current buffer? I’ve managed to set-up all the numbers on the keypad using the following:
(global-set-key (kbd "<kp-0>") "0")
(global-set-key (kbd "<kp-1>") "1")
...
But the code that emacs tells me is registered when pressing the dot key is M-O n rather than a <kp-?> key.
Any ideas?
The
.character on the keypad is normally associated to<kp-decimal>when NumLock is on. If NumLock is off, it corresponds to the Del key associated to<kp-delete>. In this mode, the.corresponds to<S-kp-delete>.But, normally
<kp-0>,<kp-1>, … are already translated by default to 0, 1…Check C-h i m Emacs i keypad RET
