Subject: Yet another Caps/Ctrl keyboard patch
Date: 9 Sep 1992 06:42:58 GMT

Hi,
        This is my patch for the keyboard driver kernel. This doesn't
really swap the CAPSLOCK with the CTRL key, but it makes both keys a
CTRL key. To use the CAPSLOCK you must hold SHIFT and the CAPSLOCK
key simultaneously.
