Hello Oleg  all fellow TBUDL members,

DH all I get is that ctrl+] made a word lower case with an upper

DH that the tip said does this), while the other two key combination
DH produce results ... without change. Also, this feature has to be
DH used word by word.

OZ What  is  your  Windows  version?

Old (win95 40a). I have new ones on hand but need the machine working.

OZ I  mean language.

Spanish keyboard, Spanish OS with a few English updates thrown in.
(That's supposed to be bad, but my system is more stable than before).

OZ It looks like the keyboard shortcuts works in different way in
OZ localized versions. Similar german keyboard problem was discussed
OZ here not far ago.

That makes sense. I am going to have try ctrl+each key. It still
would be nice to be able to convert blocks of text, and just a word at
a time. BTW, when my word processor converts converts upper case to
lower or vice versa, if I copy it to say an email program you lose the
new formatting - i.e., the effect is just visual, rather than a change
at bottom. What TB changes is really changed and it copies as such.

Hey Jast,

J  Actually, the key-combos do work. They are just not well-documented.
J  If you know  the position on a US-keyboard, it's probably similar on
J  a German KB (not the same though :-/)
J  Here are some:

J  standard   German

J  Ctrl-[ Ctrl-ß
J  Ctrl-] Ctrl-´
J  Ctrl-/ Ctrl-#

J  If you know about one key-combo, try around a little and you're bound
J  to find the German (or any other international version) of it. The
J  Ctrl/Shift/Alt keys are always the same (except that you can use
J  AltGr for Ctrl-Alt optionally)

Coolness!  Thanks for that truly useful tip - I guess it works in other
programs as well! ;]
