Thinkcaps

Use other lights as a caps lock indicator on newer thinkpads which no longer have a hardware caps lock indicator

Installation

Thinkcaps depends on the thinkpad-acpi driver and X11 (duh).

make
make install

Make install will copy the executable to /usr/local/sbin and set the setuid bit!

Then simply add it to your xinitrc file, or create a new one if you don't already have one:

echo "thinkcaps &" >> ~/.xinitrc
