NAME

       set_leds  - Sets the state of the keyboard LED indicators. Allegro game
       programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       void set_leds(int leds);

DESCRIPTION

       Overrides the state of the keyboard LED indicators. The parameter is  a
       bitmask containing any of the values KB_SCROLOCK_FLAG, KB_NUMLOCK_FLAG,
       and KB_CAPSLOCK_FLAG, or -1 to restore the default behavior. Example:

          /* Cycle led indicators. */
          set_leds(KB_SCROLOCK_FLAG);
          rest(1000);
          set_leds(KB_CAPSLOCK_FLAG);
          rest(1000);
          set_leds(KB_NUMLOCK_FLAG);
          rest(1000);
          set_leds(-1);

       Note that the led behaviour cannot be  guaranteed  on  some  platforms,
       some leds might not react, or none at all. Therefore you shouldn't rely
       only on them to communicate information to the user, just  in  case  it
       doesn't get through.
