  There is no way to get the CapsLock to work on our currently
released products, since X has to get its input from the NeWS
server, and there is no way for X to get the state of the
CapsLock key when an X window is entered.
  The good news (no pun intended) is that the CapsLock key
will function correctly in IRIX 4.0, when X takes over as
the main windowing system.
