Title:
  Windows: Selecting text using SHIFT + HOME does not work ---
  workaround

Status in Sikuli:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  **** workaround 
  from https://launchpad.net/~ketankalia (comment #2)

  Apparently for the moment num lock has to be turned off for SHIFT+HOME
  to work.

  Use Sikuli's NumLock check feature
  (http://sikuli.org/docx/globals.html#Env.isLockOn) and
  type(Key.NUM_LOCK), to handle it programmatically.

  Version 1.0rc3 (r905)
  OS: Windows 7 64

  I'm trying to select text using SHIFT + direction key, e.g. UP, DOWN, HOME, END and so on (and then copy content to clipboards).
  The sikuli will just move the cursor to desired position, without selecting/highlighting the text.
  Example:

  #open a text editor
  type("foo")
  type(Key.HOME)
  type(Key.END, KeyModifier.SHIFT)
