- We have been using a Type 4 keyboard on our 3/110's (Xkernel machines)
- for quite awhile. However, now there is an accountant type who likes to use
- the keypad. While it is fairly easy to map the Type-3 bindings that it
- thinks it has to fit the Type-4, there is a little problem. The Type-4
- keyboard has a few xtra keys, and one of these xtra keys is the "+" key
- on the keypad. I've been told that not having said key would make
- bean counting difficult, so I was wondering if anyone out there has a
- solution. We do have older boot proms in the machines, but i don't
- think that a type 4 keyboard existed when the 3/110 was in production,
- so this probably won`t help.
