Here's a strange one for you. I'm playing an old game ("Police Quest" via DOSBox) on my PowerBook which requires the ability to move diagonally. Normally with a full keyboard, I would just have Num-Lock disabled and press the "7", "9", "1", or "3" keys on the numeric pad to accomplish this. The PowerBook only provides me with the standard up, down, left, right arrow keys and if I try to hit those same number keys, it ends up actually sending the literal digit instead of a direction command. I've tried being sneaky and hitting two arrow keys (say down and left) at the same time, but that doesn't work.
Is there any way to emulate the keystroke that gets transmitted on a regular full sized keyboard when someone presses the diagonal arrow keys?
Also, on a related note... The game occasionally requires me to hit "F10". As I'm running Panther, hitting "Fn" + "F10" still calls on Expose. Is there a temporary way (short of uControl) to bypass Expose and send a true "F10" key signal?
