Locking number lock karabiner elements how to#

I'm not sure why my keyboard is so stubborn, but it is. I only need it to run once, right after startup - well, maybe more than once for some reason with my keyboard I have to use the -v option and even then it seems like sometimes I have to run it two or three times (starting with the ^num option) to get it to work.

But however K-E is starting itself up, it's happening early enough in the bootup process that I have no idea how to get setleds to run first. I attempted to figure out if there was some way to run your program at bootup before K-E runs. That said, I very much appreciate that you made your program available even with this limitation. It means I have to quit Karabiner-Elements, run setleds (which does work if K-E is not running) and then start Karabiner-Elements again. If you get a segmentation fault while running setleds or numlock stops working, try restarting your computer. NumLock should now be functioning correctly. Open spark and double-click AppleScript on the left-side.Ĭlick on the shortcut field and then press the numlock keyĭo shell script 'PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/binĬlick create and then click 'Start Spark Daemon' at the bottom.

Making setleds num run when pressing numlock: You can now run setleds num to change the state of your numlock, as long as you have /usr/local/bin on your PATH environment variable. Xcodebuild -project SetLEDs.xcodeproj (alternatively just compile with gcc or other C compiler)

Open terminal and navigate to the Source folder of setledmacs. I do not take any credit for this program as I did not make it (only altered it ever so slightly). I'm going to attach the altered version of setledsmac to this comment. On my version, instead of having to specify if you want numlock on or off, you only have to do: 'setleds num' and it will automatically change the state of numlock. I have made a modified version with some minor changes.

Here you can find a program called setledsmac: Hi guys, i had the same problem and just wanted to share my alternative solution so I could hopefully help some of you out.
