[net.micro.pc] Querying CAPS-LOCK from BasicA ?

hsgj@batcomputer.TN.CORNELL.EDU (Dan Green) (06/11/86)

   I have written a program in BASICA for a professor here.  I will pause
while everyone wipes the smirk off their faces...  Alright, now the good
news is that the prog is done and it really cooks after being compiled
with the IBM Basic Compiler (Nice Product).  However, I want to add a 
feature where the "status line" at the bottom of my prog will say "CAPS"
if the caps lock is pressed down.  Does anyone know how I can query the
status of the CAPS LOCK key from Basica ??  Any replies will be appreciated.
If it can't be done from Basic, though, then I will probably scrap the
option - its not crucial enough for me to have to learn 8088 assembler :-)
   By the way, if you can help I would appreciate E-mail, though you might
want to post to the net in case anyone else wants to know.  I ask for
E-Mail cause I am 241 articles behind in net.micro.pc ...
   Thanks much,
