Just use DPMI stuff. Some simple and very useful functions are available in
the "sys/movedata.h" file.

Here goes the example:
---------------8<----------------
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
#include <sys/movedata.h>

int main() {
  char k;
  
  clrscr();
  printf ("hit Enter for NumLock switching...\n");
  getch();

  _dosmemgetb (0x417, 1, &k);
  k ^= 1<<5;
  _dosmemputb (&k, 1, 0x417);
  
  printf ("hit Enter for NumLock switching...\n");
  getch();

  _dosmemgetb (0x417, 1, &k);
  k ^= 1<<5;
  _dosmemputb (&k, 1, 0x417);

  return 0;
}
---------------8<----------------

Good Luck
