Set_Caps
Purpose Forces the Caps Lock key on or off.
Decln. Set_Caps(On:Boolean);
Remarks On is a boolean to indicate if the Caps lock should be set to on,
i.e. pass true to set it on and false to set it off.
This procedure will only function on IBM (Compaq!) machines and
100% compatibles. Clone machines that have cheap keyboards or
non-standard BIOS will not properly illuminate the Caps Lock key
- some clones use a mechanical trigger to change the Caps Lock
light and do not detect a software change.
Example
BEGIN
IF CAPSON THEN
BEGIN
FWRITE('TURNING OFF THE CAPS LOCK KEY');
SET_CAPS(FALSE);
END;
END;
