Logitech wireless keyboard caps lock on/off

Hi,

I have an old model of Logitech wireless keyboard and mouse.

When the Caps Lock button is clicked, there is indication neither on the keyboard nor on the screen (desktop).

This is very inconvenient. When typing, especially passwords, there is no way to know whether the caps lock is on or off.

Does anybody have any script (or some other solution) to give some indication when the caps lock is on or off?

Thank you.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, macOS Mojave (10.14)

The wireless Logitech keyboard has a green light that shows on the caps lock (top right) when caps lock is engaged. Sounds like that light has burned out.

What you can do is have a blank sticky note on the desktop and just type a couple of letters on it to see if caps lock is on or off. You can open sticky notes by tapping command and space bar at the same time - in the search field, type stickies.

My Logitech keyboard too old, it doesn't have any lights.

I need to capture the event (caps on or off) with the help of a script. The only option I have is to see the "green light" on the screen instead of the keyboard.

I am hoping someone here can help me with the script.
