I'm with you on the CAPS issue. I do find the code in caps easier to
read. Perhaps I'm just used to it from the first 20 years of my career
spent writing COBOL. I think the layout of the code and choice of
variable and paragraph names has more to do with readability that
whether it is upper or lower case.
When I started programming (FORTRAN IV) I was using Newbury terminals
(iirc). They didn't have lower case!
We got a couple of newer ones that did, that went to the secretaries for
wordprocessing, and finally I ended up with a brand new PT45 "beehive"
terminal. That was nice :-)
Cheers,
Wol
