I've a problem with Win32::Setupsup::Sendkeys :

When i want to send 'Ab' to a windows, this function send SHIFT+A and b but if CAPSLOCK is enabled, the windows receive 'aB' not cool !

I sent a mail to the module's author for his information.

My solution is test the CAPSLOCK state with GetKeyState function in user32.dll (thanks to Aldo for Win32::API), i'm writing a module (Win32::Keyboard) to do this properly...

Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
