I've been using three different standalone numeric keypads for
years. For me, customization has been a matter of
1)Elisp code
2)Operating system
3)Whether console or gui mode.
4)If console, which emulator.
I do note that there are all kinds of programmable keypads
available from Amazon, but many are pretty spendy.
There's an awful lot of things that can be done with just a
ten-key pad. I even set up emacs so that I can switch my keypad
from "navigation-only" mode to "special purpose" mode.
In gui mode in linux, my emacs knows the difference between
Control-Home and Control-Keypad-Home. (as an example)
