$*~LAlt::
Loop 10
	Hotkey, % "*Numpad" A_Index-1, HandleNum, on
keywait, LAlt ; replace with "Sleep 100" for an alternative
Loop 10
	Hotkey, % "*Numpad" A_Index-1, HandleNum, off
If (Ascii_Unicode_Input = "061")
	msgbox you pressed the equals key!
If (Ascii_Unicode_Input = "040")
	msgbox you pressed the open parenthisesis key!
If (Ascii_Unicode_Input = "041")
	msgbox you pressed the close parenthisesis key!
Ascii_Unicode_Input := ""
return

HandleNum:
Ascii_Unicode_Input .= SubStr( A_ThisHotkey, 0 )
return

This might be a workaround, since I don't think those buttons can be 'held down'. It also hijacks the numberpad momentarily, so if you have other hotkeys bound to the number pad, you may want to put this code in a seperate script that gets run by the other hotkey script. Finally, if you still want to be able to manualy do the alt+numpad thing for special characters, either use the right alt key or sway the 'keywait' line for 'sleep 100' (and wait 1/10 sec after pressing the alt key before entering the char code )
