There is, but it isn't too serious: with NumLock off, Enter and the operator keys on the numpad don't work in orpie when running in xterm or mintty. That's because it doesn't seek to support the "application keypad mode" keycodes. (But users will probably have NumLock on anyway if they're gonna use the numpad in a calculator.) > Hey!

I wasn't aware of it, but it does look rather good, with a pleasingly high geek factor. And it's written in OCaml, what more could one want? :) Andy -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
