Gnumeric/Gnucash/OpenOffice Calc and so on are pretty much unusable with the numeric keypad, since they (correctly, since I use a locale that uses comma as the decimal character) expect decimals entered with commas. > I, at least > use the numerical keypad on desktop computer, which means I have not needed > the comma for long time (on a desktop computer).

I've previously filed a report, but I haven't been able to figure out a patch for this problem myself. It involves overlaying the default numeric keymap if I remember correctly, something I don't know how to do.
