- Hello,
-
- I am working on a HP 9000/720 and the keyboard has no
- display of the CAPS LOCK key. This can be very inconvient because
- the caps lock is very close to <esc> and I keep hitting one when
- I want to hit the other. Is there any way I can create a application
- that will pop up (or light up or whatever) when I press that key.
-
- I want it to work while I am in vi on a xterm window so I can't change
- the application to display it. I need something stand alone that
- just watches that key.
-
- Any ideas???
