Introduction
This is again a keyToggle application - an application that works in the background using a keyboard hook.
After keyToggleCtrl has been started, it will install a keyboard hook and watches the keyboard messages for the appearance of the toggle, or as I call it, the sticky key.
When the sticky key is detected, keyToggle Ctrl will watch the keyboard messages for the keys listed in a keytable (default is watching for presses of the number keys 0 to 9). If the pressed key matches a key in the keytable, keytogglectrl will remove the message from the window message queue and instead send the key found in CharTable
with Control pressed before and released after the replaced key.
For example, you press the sticky key, the LED defined by LedID should light and if you then press 0, keyToggleCtrl will send instead Control+C to the active application.

Without keyToggleCtrl, you have to show the SoftwareInputPanel
(SIP), tap the [Ctrl] button and then the āCā and then hide the SIP. With keyToggleCtrl
, you can just use the hardware keyboard and have Ctrl+C (Copy to Clipboard) and Ctrl+V (Paste from Clipboard) at your fingers.
After you started keyToggleControl
, you will only notice a small symbol on the Today Screen of your device. If you tap the symbol, you have the chance to end the keyboard hook and the keyToggleCtrl
application.

To find a usable LedID
, you may use another tool called LED_Control
