I had no idea.

“Wise statesmen as they were, they knew the tendency of prosperity to breed tyrants, and so they established these great self-evident truths, that when in the distant future some man, some faction, some interest, should set up the doctrine that none but rich men, or none but white men, were entitled to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness, their posterity might look up again to the Declaration of Independence and take courage to renew the battle which their fathers began — so that truth, and justice, and mercy, and all the humane and Christian virtues might not be extinguished from the land; so that no man would hereafter dare to limit and circumscribe the great principles on which the temple of liberty was being built.”
- Abraham Lincoln, July 4, 1858

I'm confused...  How would these be used on a Unicomp keyboard?

http://pckeyboard.com/page/SBLE/AltFunNumKey

Pull off the existing fn row, and pop these on? Pretty simple, actually.

RealForce 87UB55 | CODE Clears 104 | CODE Clears 87 | Infinity w/ Clears | Unicomp Ultra Classic
Previous boards: RealForce 45g 87UB | HHKB 2 PRO | Leopold FC660C | Filco MJ2 87 (Browns and Blacks) | CM QFR (Blues and Reds) | Filco MJ2  Linear-R | Poker (Reds, Browns, Blacks, Ergo Clears) | Dell AT101W | Matias TP3
Other: G403 | G Pro | Rival 700 | Castor | G502 | G602 | G600 | MX Master | Zowie EC1 CL  | Sensei | IE 3.0 | Kinzu 2 | Perf MX | Imperator | G500 | Apple Magic Mouse

But, these are replacements for the number key row, not the function key row.

How do you figure? Looks like they say f1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12 to me.

On the top of the keys is the number row, from !/1..........+/=

The only place you would see something like this is on a mini keyboard, like the HHKB, FC660C, Poker, etc..

There are two sets. One is a combination fn/number row, found here: http://pckeyboard.com/page/SBLE/AltFunNumKey
The other is a combination fn/geekhack row, found here: http://pckeyboard.com/page/SBLE/GHFunKey

TBH, I agree about the limited usefulness of the fn/number keys on a unicomp board, but then the appropriate question to ask would be "why" would those be used on a Unicomp, not "how".
