- Well, nothing much to say here. Drag the US - lc file onto
- your system folder. When it asks to install it into your system
- just say yes. ;-)
-
- Next, open your keyboard control panel and select "US - lc".
- If you happen to have a keyboard menu in your menu bar, you can
- select it that way.
-
- What it does is re-map your keyboard, when the caps-lock key is
- down and you press and hold either shift key and instead of capital
- letters you'll get lowercase. Please note you will still get normal
- shifted punctuation, only the letters are different. (To get a better
- idea, try looking at the layout through the Keycaps utility.)
-
- If you don't like the layout, then double-click on your System suitcase
- and look for the keyboard layout named US - lc. Drag it to the trash
- and close your System.
-
- It only uses about 2.5k of disk space, so don't there shouldn't be any
- problems with space. It also requires System 7 (and above I'd guess)
- and should work on any current Macintosh with any current keyboard.
- I'd guess it works with a PPC, but until someone buys me one I can't
- say for sure. (If you want to check and let me know, please do.) Since
- this isn't much more than an altered KCHR resource I'd guess it should
- work without much of a problem.
-
- I created the layout because I saw this on the PC and thought it would
- be useful on my Mac. I'm distributing it because I thought I'd share
- it with you all. :-) BTW, I've seen an Extension which does basically
- the same thing. My KCHR doesn't take any extra memory and doesn't
- screw around with crazy things Extensions tend to do. I also think this
- is the better way to do this.
-
- I'm sending this out postcardware. If you like it, send me a post
- card of your home town. And if you want, I'll send you one back! :-)
- If you don't like it, I'm sorry. Just select your old keyboard
- layout. :-( If you don't like to send postcards, send me some
- email instead.
