If you were using Capscntrl 3.0 maybe it didn't get uninstalled properly, and is now trashing 3.5. > As an aside, this program wouldn't be necessary if the 7300 keyboard > had been designed by anyone who's ever heard of emacs. Agreed. The guy who decided to put the Caps Lock key under the tab key should be condemned to using IBM's X edit for the rest of his days. On second thought, not even I am that cruel. Of course the true Emacs fan would not have made DEL be <shift> ESC either, although that is fixable with the usual ^H <-> DEL swap in the key table. Bob Wilber {mtune, ihnp4}!gauss!wilber
