Programs such as this on XT's and some AT clones may cause the LED's to become
out of synch with that actual state of the toggle.  A little annoying, but
you can live with it.  

To get around this problem, I have a utility which puts a clock in the upper 
corner of the screen with arrows for the status of the toggles.  

If you don't have it Prof. Salmi, I'll send it to garbo.
