Default Caps Lock, etc Keyboard LED emulators.

Keyboard Leds 1.0

Homepage: http://karpolan.com/software/keyboard-leds/

"Some new model of notebooks, netbooks and cordless keyboards have no indicators for Caps Lock, and Num Lock. Indicator of Scroll lock disappeared almost from any hardware. Keyboard Leds software solves this problem and allows you to see the current state of keyboard locks on small icon in the system tray or on the floating small window over your screen. "

Anyone interested in this software should be aware that there's another program with an almost identical name, but this one is shareware. Be certain what you are downloading if not using the link provided by awgeewhiz above.

Just so there are no misunderstandings: Quote from site:

"You can download and use Keyboard Leds software absolutely free, either for personal or business purposes."

This is actually just what I needed. I use CAPS for my password so it often gets left on and as I've usually got junk sitting on the side of my keyboard the LED gets obscured. Now I've set this to appear just under my Rainmeter config so I can't miss it. Thanks

Yep, thanks - another good one

Where are you getting all this stuff from? Are you permanently plugged in to a mainframe somewhere?

Anyway, we're grateful.

Was wondering the exact same thing.
Awgeewhiz is an endless source of interesting free stuff and the best is that he's willing to share. Thanks.

This is my favorite with a wireless keyboard. The indicator is only visible if the state is changed from the selected default. TH
