for xterm it's simple to see what's going on - look at the control/middle/mouse
menu at the "Enable Application Keypad" line.  When you run a full-screen app
it generally initializes the cursor- and numeric-keypads to application mode.
xterm emulates a vt100 in this area, which sends escape sequences for the
numeric keypad.
