History of creating.

The creating of the TogglesInTray had several reasons.During the work on computer the author often pressed Caps Lock instead of  Tab ,but no sound were generated, this was bad ,because when he began to type the letters were not the needed case.Also the keyboard was relatively far from monitor & it was not always comfortable to look to the toggles indicator. The third reason was that he have seen the keyboards, which have the toggles indicator so thin , that to see is the indicator on or off ,the user have to look to such keyboard at the angle = 90 degree.Therefore the author have decided to write the program, which sounds when toggle key is pressed, have indicators in tray & have other convenient features .

Known problems.

On Windows 95,98 when input is directed to  DOS-session window, the program does not work correct(Windows does not inform it about pressed keys ) - if the  toggle key was pressed, the state of icons does not change.
