Well, -- according to
http://translate.google.com/translate_t?hl=&ie=UTF-8&text=Tastatur&sl=de&tl=en#
,
at least, --
it says that "Tastatur" means "keyboard"; and that
"Tastaturindikator" translates to the English phrase "keyboard indicator".

(PS:  IMHO I would have called it "keyboard MODE indicator", or something
like that; but then maybe I don't grok [understand] what is / does, as well
as der.hans does ... :-)

HTH,
