There is no AutoNumLock. I use a laptop as my primary machine (IBM Thinkpad) and I've never had this issue at all.
[Edit] I stand corrected, apparently it does happen but I must have turned it off a long time ago. You can set that property inCommand line preferences. |

You can do it yourself
Options->General->User Interface->Command Line unselect Activate Numlock |

Well it sure as hell turns numlock on everytime i start cmud. Does your thinkpad have a seperate numpad perhaps? I'm running Vista 64 ultimate with CMud 2.18, and it's been doing it to me ever since 1.34 or so. It's annoying cos i go to type something and end up 36625ng 352e th5s
Which translates to looking like this :) |

It's a known issue that this preference isn't saving for some reason. Annoying, I know, but you only make a tit of yourself once before you fix it ;)

Umm, it's not a "known issue" to me. It's working fine for me here. I went into Preferences and turned off the AutoNumlock and the next time I opened the session it didn't activate numlock. So the preference saved with my session just fine.
Maybe you are talking about the fact that you need to change this option each time you create a new session icon?
Also, CMUD *does* have code in it to try and detect a Laptop and not activate on a laptop, but unfortunately there isn't any sure-fire way to detect a laptop these days (unless someone has an idea on how to do that). |

Hmm, perhaps it's been fixed and my memory's leaky. I haven't been on my laptop in a month or two.
EDIT: Yes, it has. Apologies. |

If you REALLY want to detect them, then perhaps try looking at CPU / GPU models. This would require you kept an up to date list available for comparison though. I don't know if it's worth the effort, now that I know that this is just a setting. Not to mention, i'm not sure if it would work on my setup atm anyways. It's... unique ;)
