Is it possible to use the caps lock indicator light for something else? It would be really nice if it could be made to indicate the keyboard layout, instead of or in addition to caps lock.


(By the way, I resolved my last problem by deleting ModifierFlag::NONE.)

You cannot do it with Karabiner.

Please use another tool like maclight.
https://github.com/busyloop/maclight

Note:
You have to enable "Pass-Through caps lock LED status" in Karabiner to
use caps lock LED as another purpose.
