Posting-number: Volume 6, Issue 58
Submitted-by: jbayer@ispi.UUCP (Jonathan Bayer)
Archive-name: keylock.sco
I thought that I would post this since it is so short. This program
makes the keyboard caps-lock and num-lock keys local to each multiscreen
or global to all the multiscreens. It is more documentation than code.
It uses an undocumented ioctl() call to set the mode.
Enjoy.

X/* ******************************************************************** *
X * *
X * This short program sets the behaviour of the Caps-Lock and *
X * Num-Lock keys to either local or global mode. *
X * *
X * Calling sequence: *
X * *
X * setlocklock [ -l ] [ -L ] [ -g ] [ -G ] *
X * *
X * where: -l and -L both will set local mode *
X * -g and -G both will set global mode *
X * *
X * Bugs: In Xenix 2.3.x, *
X * The keyboard lights do not correctly show the mode *
X * when in local mode. They are only updated when *
X * either the Num-Lock or Caps-LOCK or Scroll-Lock *
X * keys are depressed. At that time all of the lights *
X * are updated correctly. This is due to the way the *
X * keyboard and console drivers are now seperated. In *
X * Xenix 2.2.x, the keyboard and console drivers were *
X * more tightly interconnected and this problem doesn't *
X * exist. *
