Christopher,

First of all, I want to thank you and everybody else for cygwin: it has helped me tremendously during my graduate studies.

PROBLEM:
Whenever I have my CAPS locked, the top-row keys return the character as if I also had the Shift key pressed. For example, I get * instead of 8, + instead of =, and the ESC key doesn't work. Imagine writing FORTRAN code using vim with this problem :)

How can I make my shell to change this behavior to the standard one?

Thanks,

:)

FYI-I am running Sindows 98, second edition

Daniel
