EDT keypad support is available within EVE and works just fine.

BTW, EDT keypad support is also available within emacs on Linux (and
presumably other Unix type systems) assuming you have a suitably capable
terminal emulator.

If you setup X correctly you can also use the EDT keypad in emacs in
GUI mode (which I never do BTW, so I don't know what that involves these
days).
