Is it possible for twm to use different key mappings in different
windows (similar to the way it checks the window name in choosing an
icon)? Specifically, I would like to have my Sun's R7 through R15 keys
map into a number pad when I'm using xcalc, and remain arrow keys
elsewhere. Any suggestions?
(The nitty-gritty: TWM Revision 1.2, X11.3, Sun 3/50)

If xcalc used the toolkit (it really ought to), then you could attach the necessary actions to the appropriate keycodes. Ditto on the other application.
