[QUOTE="alexknibb, post: 624790, member: 50738"] Hello all. Long time lurker, first time poster here. :) I've been rediscovering some classic games using DOSBox on my MBP, and I've just happened upon the classic LucasArts adventure Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade. The fighting bit in it uses a numeric keypad. Is there a way to easily emulate the numeric keypad at all on my laptop? It's a 2008 15" 2.5Ghz Penryn MBP, so I think it's lost the built in num-pad functionality of older MBPs... I've tried the help files, system prefs and Google, but to no avail. Partly because there doesn't seem to be much standardisation on num/number/numeric/numerical key/keys/keypad/pad... Any help greatly appreciated, but don't beat yourselves up over it - it's only Indy... ;) Thanks! Al. [/QUOTE]
