KLeds

What is KLeds ?

KLeds is a little program for the KDE Desktop Environment. It shows up in the KDE Panel and displays the current state of the keyboard indicator LED’s (NumLock, ScrollLock and CapsLock). It is extremly useful, if you own a Keyboard like the Logitech Cordless Desktop or any other keyboard without LED’s. With version 0.8.0 of KLeds, the special keys of the logitech keyboard are supported too. You can map each of it to a command of your choice.

History

Kleds was born when I got my Logitech Cordless Desktop (got it at my birthday what a really great present, thanks to my sweetheart) which suffers of LEDs on the keyboard. But especially if you use Linux you will miss those LED’s sooner or later. Of course a keyboard which is powered by battery is not meant to have LED’s but thats why KLeds is here.
