title: How can I get the Caps Lock state, and set it to on, if it isn't already?
body: <p>I would like a specific example on how to turn caps lock on <em>if</em> it is off.</p>
  
  <p>I know how to toggle the key, I have been using this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>toolkit.setLockingKeyState(KeyEvent.VK_CAPS_LOCK, Boolean.TRUE);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>That will change the state of the key whether it is on or off.
  But I want to make sure it is on at the beginning of the application.</p>
  
  <p>(The final goal is having the keyboard LEDs flash in certain sequences, which works better if I have a certain starting state.)</p>
