good enough.  Caps lock should be a prefix in window-eyes so you can define
commands to it.  it would solve a lot of keyboard conflicts.  I miss this
feature from window bridge.

Subject: Script for converting Capslock into Insert

Hello all:
Being able to use the Caps lock key as an alternative insert key is a
convenient utility, particularly when one needs to use a laptop
keyboard, though it is useful at other times when the insert plus a key
on the right side of the keyboard is the designated hotkey, e.g., in
reading tables.
That was one feature of JAWS I appreciated.
The script to replace the Caps lock key, therefore, is a good idea in
theory.
Using it on either my IBM Thinkpad T-43 or T-60 (using Windows XP),
however, produces an undesirable side-effect, or at least appears to do so.
I've had numerous instances in which the keyboard became confused.  For
example the control key or the alt key appeared to be "stuck," and there
was no way to release them -- not even so I could get to the control
panel in Window-Eyes and turn off scripting.
It has happened often enough with both machines that I've now turned off
that script.  The problem went away.
Perhaps this is unique to Thinkpads.  Thought I'd check.
