Keyboard Modifier Status for XFCE

Keyboard Modifier Status for XFCE is an XFCE port of the Keyboard-Modifier-Status extension for Gnome Shell.

It provides a visual indication of the modifier keys currently pressed and is mostly useful if you're using sticky keys.

Installation instructions

In addition to the XFCE development libraries make sure xdt-csource (XFCE >= 4.18) or exo-csource (XFCE <4.18) is installed on your system. It's probably available as part of the package xfce4-dev-tools or similar from your distribution's package manager.

The plugin uses the Meson Build System.

$ meson setup build
$ cd build
$ ninja && sudo ninja install

The plugin consists of 2 files:

  • libxfce4-modifier-status-plugin.so, installed to /usr/lib/xfce4/panel/plugins by default
  • xfce4-modifier-status-plugin.desktop, installed to /usr/share/xfce4/panel/plugins by default
