Parameters

State

If this parameter is omitted, the AlwaysOn/Off attribute of the key is removed (if present). Otherwise, specify one of the following words:

On: Turns on the key and removes the AlwaysOn/Off attribute of the key (if present).

Off: Turns off the key and removes the AlwaysOn/Off attribute of the key (if present).

AlwaysOn: Forces the key to stay on permanently.

AlwaysOff: Forces the key to stay off permanently.

Remarks

A key can also be toggled to its opposite state via the Send command; for example: Send {CapsLock}.

Keeping a key AlwaysOn or AlwaysOff requires the keyboard hook, which will be automatically installed in such cases.
