Description

Turns Num Lock on or off in X11 sessions. It is a small utility for login scripts, desktop autostart entries, or lightweight window-manager setups where keyboard state is not managed elsewhere.

Use it when the numeric keypad should be ready automatically after login. It only affects X11 sessions and does not provide a graphical settings panel.
