OK, I have narrowed it down to an issue with putty. When I use nvi/vim from kde or cli, numeric keypad behaves as I expect. When I ssh from one debian box to other debian boxen and use nvi/vim, again, numeric keypad behaves as expected. However, when I use putty to ssh into these remote debian boxen from our windoze boxen, I get this bizarre, unexpected behaviour! I just pored through putty's docs, found nothing and opened a bug report with them. Anybody else experienced this?
