Thanks for this grate addon. this is feature request. you can add virtual numpad mode for laptops that does not have numpad to allow them to type numbers faster. by pressing or holding some keys such as FN key, some part of the keyboard types number instead of letters. emagin letter j will convert to 5 and so on. y u i =1 2 3 h j k=4 5 6 n m ,=7 8 9 if I hold fn key these keys wil convert to numbers in num pad and by releasing fn key these keys will convert to normal letters. Thanks.

I apologize for not noticing this issue sooner. Don't most laptops without numpads already do this?

The couple that I have had that do not have numpads, still include a numlock key which will let you change some of the keys (the ones you suggest) into numbers. What kind of laptop do you have (manufacturer and model) that doesn't already have this?
