Hi, If you are a programmer or in any way write code you must be accustomed to case sensitivity. So it can't be that hard to use the shift key. I don't believe anyone just types on the keyboard without using a shift key. Nah..... sorry.
On another note: Imagine all programming code was in Latvian and we all had to write our programs in Latvian. This wouldn't mean I had to become proficient in the Latvian language, no, just the Latvian constructs used in programming. eg. public class ThisClass |semo lacsis TemorLacsis { |{ public static void main |semo conseva driad emin (String[] args) |(Glest[] dovargi) {} |{} Now, imagine having to use a different character set to program.... I acknowledge that the english centric nature of programming and the web does not mean that everyone is totally versed in the english language and it's by no means required for everyone to have perfect english spelling and grammatical skills in order to post to this list. I have no problem with that at all. hope this contributes to an inclusive "all welcome" approach, kind regards, Luke On Tue, 2003-09-23 at 02:40, Kannan Sundararajan wrote: > Please do not think the programmers are using lazy English or moron(watch > you before you put like these kind of words).
