IEK. Conditional Statement
If Extended Key-State
Intention
The IEK.-Command has two modes of operation.
In Mode 1, it can be used to react on the state of NUMLOCK, CAPSLOCK and SCROLLLOCK. What you get is really the "state of the keyboard". Not "the state of the button". IEK.-returns the "real thing", not just the key-states that you will get with IKS.
The keystates from IES. just show you, if actually the NUMLOCK-Key is up or down. IEK. will really get the state of the keyboard about NUMLOCK, CAPSLOCK, SCROLLLOCK etc. When choosing between IKS. and IEK. you need to understand the difference between these commands.
In Mode 2, it can be used to react on the state of the SHIFT, CTRL or the ALT-Key and others, see list below. In this case you really check whether the given Key is down or not.
Note: If CAPSLOCK is activated and if you check for SHIFT, then IEK. will evaluate "false", because that key is actually not down itself.
NEK. is the negative form of the command.
