What I would like is a key that when pressed caused the next and ONLY the next letter to be a capital letter. Am I the only one?

Shift pretty much has that covered for me ;)

One large insurance company I worked for, annually issued a diary which included a list of foreign agents (insurance ones - not spies), I think it was in Malaysia(?), one of them was called the Phuk King Garage.



In Westcillf, near Southend there used to be a Chinese Takeaway named the Fuk Hing. Raised a few chuckles

I either hold it too long and get two letters in caps or not long enough and get all lower case. As a result I tend to use caps lock rather than shift but that's an extra key press.

I remember a company called Sofa King being reprimanded for it's ads declaring "Our Prices Are Sofa King Low!"

What I could really do with is a function that allows me to convert caps to lower case and vice-versa.

Someone is now about to tell me this exists :-[

Anything with a capital letter at the beginning. I always end up typing too fast and end up having double capitals...
This will only really mean anything who knows Shetland. Clickermin instead of Clickimin... I now have a post it note on the computer.

As a young programmer in the days of Fortran and punch cards, my programs were oft failed because I forgot the 'o' in 'count'.


I also have the habit of adding a 't' to 'busy'. I have sent several emails to ladies saying 'i know you are busty ...'

Yes, that's exactly what I mean. My error is a product of studying military history.

It's got to the point that I know I always spell it wrong so have set up an auto correct to put it right; I now just have to remember to consistently spell it incorrectly, which is not as easy as you may think.
