This software's purpose is not to compensate for a broken key, it is to automatically enable the NumLock status whenever starting an X session. I don't oppose the addition of this toggle feature, but I honestly don't see the need for it either. However... I notice that the bug reporter's intended usage goes one step beyond: it would add an applet to either KDE or GNOME's taskbar to toggle the status of the NumLock key. That feels more involved. Anyhow, if someone ever submits a patch to upstream that adds the toggle action, without affecting current behaviour, I will gladly package it. -- Martin-Éric Racine http://q-funk.iki.fi

Bug#311044: 311044: numlockx: toggle option would be a nice add-on
Hi, Well, I defined an icon in my panel to put the numlock off (the normal keyboard numlock button doesn't work for some reason). This is convenient because typing 'numlockx off' is not easy/possible when my laptop keyboard is in numlocked mode. Sometimes I also have to put it on... this I _can_ type (as my laptop keyboard is in normal mode then), but it would be easy if I could reuse the icon that is already available to just toggle the mode. Another use would be in a script where you want to flash the numlock to call for attention... Anyway, just a thought... leave it if you don't like it, but it's probably trivially added, right? Cheers, Chris. --- The very first version of numlockx actually works only that way, so you can use just that: http://www.linux.cz/lists/archive/linux/68637.html .

That wishlist concerns the upstream software, not the Debian packaging, so I'm hereby forwarding him the idea. -- Martin-Éric Racine http://q-funk.iki.fi
