I also recoil in horror when I think about bloodletting. Happily this practice is largely in the past.
So on to bigger and better things. When can we dispense with caps lock and overwrite mode?
Caps lock: use a screwdriver to pop that key off the keyboard (along with those "windows" et al. keys that occupy the spaces between the alt and ctrl keys). Some people map caps-lock to ctrl (IIRC old HP(?) keyboards had the key labeled "ctrl" right there). It is also possible to map that key to "nothing" (so pressing it simply has no effect). Overwrite mode: don't activate it??? Best regards, jj
