In the following situation, the Caps Lock key function is lost:
1) The Caps Lock key is pressed and locked in the down position.
2) The Macintosh Portable is put into the "sleep" mode.
3) The Macintosh Portable is reactivated by pressing a key.
Even though the Caps Lock key is still locked in the down position, the
system reverts to lowercase. This happens because the "Caps Lock flag"
stored in the register is temporary and is lost during the sleep mode.
To reinstate Caps Lock after reactivating the Macintosh Portable from the
"sleep" mode, press the Caps Lock key twice: once to unlock it and a
second time to reset it.
This applies to both the original Macintosh Portable and the revised
Macintosh Portable with the backlit screen. No "fix" is expected. This
problem does not exist with the PowerBooks.
