Indeed, I discovered a lot of other things in the kernel and elsewhere. Just wait a few minutes for my next message.

About Application Mode, I found the following information:
http://homes.mpimf-heidelberg.mpg.de/~rohm/computing/mpimf/notes/terminal.html
ftp://ftp.cs.utk.edu/pub/shuford/terminal/vt100_numeric_keypad.txt

As far as I can see that covers VT100. But I don't have VT100 in the BIOS-console, and I never use it anyway. So either nano refuses to work with VT52 or does it right.

vim enables the application mode, and handles it properly.
This works fine with Linux and FreeMiNT.

Yes - but apart from working cursor-keys it's unbearably slow in response (just downloaded http://gentoo.atariforge.org/files/app-editors/vim-7.3.646.tbz2, tested on BIOS-console).

I don't care very much about that anyway, I don't need any of these.
