capslock

Currently I use following autohotkey script to change keyboard layout using the CapsLock button.

SetCapsLockState, AlwaysOff

+CapsLock::CapsLock

#SingleInstance force

CapsLock::Send, {ALTDOWN}{SHIFTDOWN}{SHIFTUP}{CTRLUP}{ALTUP}
    return

I want CapsLock LED be turned on when layout is Persian and off when it is Englsih. Is it possible? Indeed I want LED be switched wile CapsLock remains off.
