Recaps Switcher
------------------------------------
This simple program allows you to switch between languages using only one reconfigurable "Cycle Switch" hotkey - like the CapsLock one that is set by default.
If you accidentally typed some text in the wrong layout, there is a "Convert Inplace" hotkey that helps to fix it.
If you have more than two languages installed, you can configure ones you want to switch between into groups, which you can cycle through both with the group hotkey and with the main "Cycle Switch" hotkey.
Additional indication about currently active layout is the country flag in the application icon, ScrollLock keyboard LED and on-screen overlay indicator.
Yet another hotkey may be assigned to execute optional "Eject CD" action.
Enjoy!
