The key to all my troubles: "I have a bone to pick.
Whose idea was it to put the Caps Lock key next to the letter A?
i hIT iT aLL tHE tIME bY aCCIDENT. I bet you do, too. The problem
is that designers have blindly copied the typewriter, on which it
took effort to press the Caps Lock. It only takes the tiniest flick
of the finger to put you in uppercase limbo with a keyboard. Fortunately,
I've found a Windows utility that blocks Caps Lock unless you hold
it for a few seconds: sMaRTcaPs. Install this program, and Caps
Lock will never lock you up again."

"We are so pleased with your product. I can't believe
how fast I am typing again...those CAPS really did me in."

"Unless you're a master typist, you probably find
it easy to botch up your documents by accidentally hitting the Caps
Lock, Num Lock or Insert Key. This is naturally frustrating, because
it requires you to backtrack to correct all of the funny mistakes
you make. Well, fret no longer- sMaRTcaPs is the ideal solution.
This ingenious little utility allows you to manage the way these
three keys are used. Instead of simply disabling these keys, it
lets you control the response time whenever you press them. After
holding a button for a certain period of time, sMaRTcaPs indicates
a key status with a visual or audio indicator. This way, a key will
only be activated when you need it; mistyping will be a thing of
the past!"

sMaRTcaPs is an excellent, well designed program.
It has been most beneficial to me, as it has definitely increased
my productivity and typing accuracy.

"Among computing life's little annoyances are the
glitches and problems that crop up after you inadvertently hit the
Insert, Num Lock or Caps Lock key. Phoebus LLC has come up with
a solution. Install its sMaRTcaPs software, and none of the three
hexing keys will go into action unless it is held down for a few
seconds. How few or how many, you can determine yourself.
Should you be given to letting a finger accidentally
linger on one of the three keys, a sound will warn you that you
are about to trigger the function the key controls."
- John Fried, The Philadelphia Inquirer

"I still love sMaRTcaPs, and find that it saves
me about 30 minutes every day. I have large hands and unless I am
using my full sized Microsoft keyboard, I am constantly hitting
the caps lock key. I consistently type at 82 words per minute, but that
Caps Lock key is my nemesis!"
