Below is what the FSDN says about the GetKeyState function. You need to
define two integer variables to act as parameters 2 and 3; the function
fills in their values when it runs, according to the state of the key you
are looking at.

Jackie, is there a way to get JAWS to speak the status of modifier keys like
Control, Alt, and the Windows key.
