Are there any chances to implement this function?

Scrool Lock/Num Lock

Sorry for my bad English.

I think you need root for this, so i guess FJ wont implement this!
But lets see what he says ;)

I'm guessing zgf1 wants the computers Scroll Lock and Num Lock to flash, så root should not be needed ;)

Hmm - really needed ? You are the first one who asks for this and it sounds hacky to simulate different keyboard-modes just to make a led flashing. What if the user enters text while MPE begins flashing ? Sorry, not my style but you could do this via script by using the EventHandlers of MyPhoneExplorer

Yes, I need it a lot.
Much of the time the monitor is turned off, the phone works with MyPhoneExplorer connected through BT, so I often do not see an incoming message (sms) notification. If with an unread message, the ScrollLock LED would blink, I could see from a distance that someone wants to get in touch with me.

I even made a cable made from an old PS2 keyboard just for the purpose of signaling - i.e. Miranda or SkyView (DVB-S/T software).

I would be very thankful if you'd consider my request. To be honest, that's the only function I miss in MyPhoneExplorer.
