Well this isn't a total solution, but it may get you started. I have the
following lines in my ~/.Xdefaults file to map the top row of the keypad as
well as the backspace key.
XTerm*VT100.Translations: #override \
<Key>BackSpace: string(0x7f) \n\
<Key>Num_Lock: string(0x1b) string("OP") \n\
<Key>KP_Divide: string(0x1b) string("OQ") \n\
<Key>KP_Multiply: string(0x1b) string("OR") \n\
<Key>KP_Subtract: string(0x1b) string("OS") \n\
