Hm.  I guess that crazy sysadmin for this box must have redefined the
keypad.

If <kp-4> (and stuff) is what's normal, then that'll make it easier
to define keypad keystrokes.  So does anybody want to take a whack at
defining a keypad keymap that'll be all nice and easy to use?

No, I've really rebound the keypad to issue `4' and stuff.  :-)

I think the interesting part is finding the "top 17" Gnus functions.
I have mapped my keypad to do window manager operations (I use Ion),
so the particular keypad mode wouldn't be too useful, but I could
assign those 17 functions to the extra keys on my Logitech keyboard.

Could we do a frequency analysis of user-issued commands?  Does Emacs
support something like this?
